Hospitals have until Oct. 3 to review "dry run" reports on three quality measures, according to an AHA News Now report.
The three measures are for hospital-wide readmissions, hip and knee replacement complications measures and hip and knee replacement readmissions. These measures will be posted on the federal Hospital Compare website next year.
In the meantime, hospitals may download and review mock reports at My QualityNet. Any questions, concerns and feedback related to the dry run may also be submitted to My QualityNet. CMS will also hold conference calls on the three measures for further education.
