CMS recently notified Skilled Nursing Facility providers that they found two issues in their technical coding of the Review and Correct Report, one of which also affects the Confidential Feedback Report (due for release in October 2017).

Due to technical coding issues, CMS is working on modifying the assessment measure data submission deadline dates for quarters one, two and three of Calendar Year 2017 to coincide with the quarter four Calendar Year 2017 deadline of May 15, 2018. More details about the coding issue and the delay can be found here.

Additionally, CMS has posted the training materials from the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF)Review and Correct Reports Refresher Webinar which took place on Monday, August 7, 2017. See the SNF Quality Reporting Training webpage for details.
