12 Which MDS are used to calculate QMs? Glossary of Terms MDS 3.0 Quality Measures Glossary of Terms Target Period or look-back period Span of time which defines the QM reporting period. Stays Period of time between Entry and either discharge or end of target period, which ever comes first. Episode Period of time spanning one or more stays which ends either in a discharge/death or end of target period whichever comes first. End of episode is the earliest Discharge, Death, or end of target period FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 11 of 140

13 MDS 3.0 Quality Measures Glossary of Terms Cumulative Days in the Facility (CDIF) Total days within an episode sum of number of days within each stay included in the episode. End of an episode is when the last MDS is a Discharge Assessment within target period, or Death, or Target Period ends. Any days for temporary discharges e.g. hospitalization do not count toward (CDIF). Discharge Return anticipated & returns within 30 days is treated as a reentry but within same episode. MDS 3.0 Quality Measures Glossary of Terms Long Stay Resident CDIF is over 100 days. Short Stay Resident CDIF is 100 days or less. All MDS/residents are sorted into either Long Stay or Short Stay. QM data is updated weekly, adding MDS submitted the prior week. FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 12 of 140

14 Target Date MDS 3.0 Quality Measures Glossary of Terms The event date for MDS Entry Date (A1600), or Discharge or Death Date (A2000), or Assessment Reference Date (ARD) (A2300) MDS 3.0 Quality Measures Glossary of Terms Target Assessment Latest assessment which meets criteria in the Target Period. Initial Assessment First assessment following entry record at the beginning of the selected episode. Prior Assessment Latest assessment that is 46 to 165 days before the target assessment.

15 Assessment Types SHORT STAY Target Assessments: All OBRA Assessments All scheduled PPS MDS Discharge Assessments Initial Assessments: Admission 5-day MDS Discharge Assessments LONG STAY Target Assessments & Prior Assessments: All OBRA Assessments All scheduled PPS MDS Discharge Assessments Glossary of Terms Numerator The number of MDS in the report that qualify for the QM. Denominator The number of MDS in the report period that could qualify for the QM. Exclusions Types of residents that are not included in either the numerator or denominator due to a certain diagnosis or condition. FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 14 of 140

16 Covariate Impact: Glossary of Terms Facility-level Observed QM score is calculated. Resident-level covariates are used to calculate a Resident-level Expected QM score (the probability that the resident will evidence the outcome, given the presence or absence of characteristics measured by the covariates). Then, an average of all resident-level expected QM scores for the nursing facility is calculated to create a Facility-level Expected QM score. Glossary of Terms Covariate Impact: The final Facility-level Adjusted QM score was based on a calculation which combines the facilitylevel expected score and the facility-level observed score. FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 15 of 140

17 Glossary of Terms Risk Adjustment High risk are more at risk for outcomes. State Average Average scores for each QM from all MDS submitted within your state. National Average The roll-up national average of all submitted MDS used to calculate QM. FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 16 of 140

85 Nursing Home Compare Five-Star Ratings of Nursing Homes Provider Rating Report Incorporating data reported through 06/30/2016 Overall Quality Ratings for Charlestown Community Inc (215223) Catonsville, Maryland Health Inspection Quality Measures Staffing RN Staffing The July 2016 Five-Star ratings provided above will be displayed for your nursing home on the Nursing Home Compare website on Wednesday, July 27, The Quality Measure (QM) Rating that will be posted is based on MDS 3.0 quality measures using data from the second, third and fourth quarters of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016, and claims-based quality measures using data from 7/1/2014 through 6/30/2015. Quality Measure Ratings will change beginning July 27, 2016 with the addition of the following five quality measures: Percentage of short-stay residents who made improvements in function Percentage of long-stay residents whose ability to move independently worsened Percentage of short-stay residents who were re-hospitalized after a nursing home admission Percentage of short-stay residents who have had an outpatient emergency department visit Percentage of short-stay residents who were successfully discharged to the community Information on the five new quality measures listed above is not yet available on the CASPER reports. A preview of your facility s data on these new measures, which will be displayed on Nursing Home Compare in July 2016, is shown on page 3 of this report. The new measures were not included in your facility's Quality Measure rating for June 2016 but are included in July Prior to the update of the Nursing Home Compare website in July, the Technical Users Guide will be revised to reflect the changes in the QM rating calculation. Please see page 2 of this report for the link to the Technical Users Guide. Overview of July 2016 Changes to the Quality Measure (QM) Rating Methodology: The QM calculation will now utilize four quarters of data instead of three quarters. The four quarter average for the long-stay ADL QM will be compared to the national average (instead of the state average) to provide consistency across QMs. Both the short and long-stay QMs will need 20 assessments across the four quarters to be included in the QM calculation. The imputation strategy has changed (when applicable for low denominators) to utilize the data for the individual facility and then to impute the remaining assessments to reach 20 assessments across the four quarters. Please see the updated Technical Users Guide for more detailed information. In July 2016, the five new QMs that were added to the QM rating are given half the weight of the other five-star QMs, that is, they will receive 10 to 50 points for each measure. In January 2017, the weights of the new measures will increase to be 100% (receiving 20 to 100 points for each measure). FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 84 of 140

For individual quarters for the MDS-based QMs, d<20 means the denominator for the measure (the number of eligible resident assessments) is too small to report. When d<20 is listed for individual quarters, a four quarter average may be displayed if there are at least 20 eligible resident assessments summed across the four quarters. Quality measures are reported as NA if: for measures not included in the QM rating, no data are available, or the total number of eligible resident assessments summed across the four quarters is less than 20; for measures included in the QM rating, data on this measure for your facility are not used in the calculation of your QM rating. This will happen if your facility does not have enough short-stay or long-stay measures upon which to base your rating and may occur even though your facility's data for this measure may be reported on Nursing Home Compare. 1 If the four quarter average for your facility is NA for a given QM, but rating points are provided for the QM, then there were insufficient data to compute a four-quarter average, and the points provided are based on the average points from other measures for which data are available according to the scoring rules described in detail in the Technical Users Guide at: 2 These measures are risk adjusted. 3 This is one of the new QMs, first reported on Nursing Home Compare in April The new QMs that are included in the QM rating can contribute half the number of points (10-50 points for each individual QM) compared to points for the other QMs included in the QM rating. 4 The observed rate is the actual rate observed for the facility without any risk-adjustment. 5 The expected rate is the rate that would be expected for the facility given the risk-adjustment profile of the facility. 6 Risk-adjusted rate is adjusted for the expected rate of the outcome and is calculated as (observed rate for facility / expected rate for facility) * national average of observed rate. Only the risk-adjusted rate will appear on Nursing Home Compare. 7 This measure includes some imputed data because there are fewer than 20 resident assessments or stays across the four quarters. This value is used in calculating the QM points and used in the QM rating calculation but will not be displayed on Nursing Home Compare. FH16 - Developed by Polaris Group Page 87 of 140
