Inpatient rehabilitation facilities and long-term care hospitals have until Jan. 2 to review confidential provider reports based on quality data from second-quarter 2017 to first-quarter 2018 before updated performance is publicly reported on the IRF Compare and LTCH Compare websites in March 2019. Providers also have until Jan. 2 to request a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services review if they believe their quality measure scores are inaccurate.
