IRF iQIES Reporting Information

Sep 25, 2019

Dear IRF Provider,

As of October 1, 2019, the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Patient Assessment Instrument (IRF-PAI) submission functionality within the QIES Assessment Submission and Processing (ASAP) system will no longer be available and users are required to access the new Internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES) to submit patient assessments and access associated reports.

The current user-requested IRF reports available in the CASPER Reporting application in QIES will no longer be available following the implementation of iQIES.  IRF providers are encouraged to request and/or download any historical user-requested reports from the CASPER Reporting application until 5pm ET on September 27, 2019.  The oldest quarter-end date that will display in the provider quality reporting program reports will be Quarter 3, 2019. The user-requested reports that are affected by this are as follows:

All reports in the IRF-PAI Provider report category:

•       IRF Provider Threshold Report

•       IRF-PAI Assessment Print

•       IRF-PAI Assessments with Error Number XXXX

•       IRF-PAI Discharges

•       IRF-PAI Error Detail by Facility

•       IRF-PAI Error Number Summary by Facility by Vendor

•       IRF-PAI Errors by Field by Facility

•       IRF-PAI Facility Final Validation

•       IRF-PAI Submission Activity

•       IRF-PAI Submission Statistics by Facility

•       IRF-PAI Submitter Final Validation

Updates regarding the availability of reports in the IRF Quality Reporting Program report category will be forthcoming.

Note: The IRF Provider Preview Report for the December 2019 Compare Refresh will continue to be available in the provider’s CASPER shared folder during the 30-day provider preview period.

Thank you for your patience during this transition period.  If you have questions regarding this information, please contact the QIES Technical Support Office (QTSO) Help Desk at (800) 339-9313 or iqies@cms.hhs.gov.
