The submission deadline for the (SNF) Quality Reporting Programs is fast approaching. This includes Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment data and COVID-19 vaccination coverage for health care personnel data submitted to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) for July 1 – Sept 30 (Q3) of calendar year (CY) 2025.
All data must be submitted no later than 11:59 p.m. on February 17, 2026.
It is recommended that providers run applicable Internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES)/NHSN analysis reports prior to each quarterly reporting deadline, to ensure that all required data has been submitted. Recommended iQIES reports include:
- The SNF QRP Provider Threshold Report, and
- The SNF QRP Review and Correct Report.
Swingtech sends informational messages to SNFs that are not meeting SNF QRP thresholds on a quarterly basis ahead of each submission deadline. If you need to add or change the email addresses of facility or corporate staff to which these messages are sent, please email QRPHelp@swingtech.com and be sure to include your facility name and CMS Certification Number (CCN) along with any requested email updates. At a minimum, it is recommended that a facility Administrator and Director of Nursing register for these emails.
