Data Submission Deadline Date Reminder
folder_openData Submissionscalendar_todayPosted January 4, 2013

The next data submission deadline is Thursday, January 17, 2013. Please note that we are now two weeks away from the deadline for submitting HHCAHPS Survey data for Quarter 3 of calendar year 2012 (CY12,Q3). We thank those HHCAHPS vendors who have already begun submitting CY12,Q3 data for their HHA clients.

If you have not submitted any HHCAHPS data for Quarter 3, we encourage you to begin submitting your files as soon as possible. Remember that HHCAHPS data files must pass both the initial validation checks and the “overnight” validation checks. To ensure that files are accepted by the deadline at 11:59 PM Eastern Time on January 17, 2013, you must submit all of your CY13,Q3 files on or before Wednesday, January 16, 2013.

Please be reminded that if the HHA submitted a monthly patient information file for the sample month and the vendor determined that the HHA did not have any patients eligible to be sampled for that month, the vendor must still submit an XML data file for that sample month.

Keep in mind that CMS will not accept any files after the data submission deadline. When submitting data files, make sure you check the data submission reports to verify that your files were accepted and, if not, correct the files and re-submit them before the data submission deadline.

Please contact the HHCAHPS Coordination Team at hhcahps@rti.org or by calling the toll-free number if you have any questions or need help with data submissions.
