Bridgepoint 1, Suite 300 5918 West Courtyard Drive, Austin TX 78730-5036 August 30, 2013 [Contact Name] SNF Name, 009168 [Address Line 1] [Address Line 2] [City], B8 [ZIP] RE: Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Report (PEPPER) Dear Chief Executive Officer/Administrator, The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is pleased to provide this provider-specific comparative data report, known as PEPPER, for Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs). PEPPER can be used to support internal auditing and monitoring activities with the goal of preventing improper Medicare payments and protecting the Medicare Trust Fund. CMS has contracted with TMF Health Quality Institute to develop and distribute PEPPER and to support facilities with its use. Please share your SNF PEPPER with those in your organization who would most benefit from the data provided in the report. What is PEPPER? It is a report containing provider-specific data statistics for episodes of care identified as potentially vulnerable to improper Medicare payments. It identifies where the SNF is at greatest risk for improper payments as compared to all other SNFs in the nation. This is SNF PEPPER version Q4FY12, containing statistics for episodes of care ending between October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2012. Interpreting PEPPER: SNFs are encouraged to review the reports and focus on areas in which they are an outlier, meaning they are at greatest risk for improper payments (at or above the 80th percentile, or at or below the 20th percentile for areas at risk for undercoding). PEPPER cannot identify the presence of improper payments. These can only be confirmed through a review of medical record documentation, although outlier status identifies where billing practices differ from the majority of other SNFs in the nation. Training and Support: At PEPPERresources.org, access the SNF PEPPER User s Guide and a recorded SNF PEPPER training session, located on the Training and Resources page in the Skilled Nursing Facility section. Questions regarding the SNF PEPPER may be submitted at any time through the website Help Desk (Help/Contact Us tab). Sincerely, Kimberly Hrehor, MHA, RHIA, CHC Project Director

Skilled Nursing Facility PEPPER Compare Targets Report, Four Quarters Ending Q4 FY 2012 The Compare Targets Report displays statistics for target areas that have reportable data (11+ target numerator count) in the most recent time period. Percentiles indicate how a Skilled Nursing Facility's (SNFs) target area percent compares to the target area percents for all SNFs in the respective comparison group. For example, if a SNF's national percentile (see below) is 80.0, 80% of the SNFs in the nation have a lower percent value than that SNF. The SNF's state percentile (if displayed) and the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) jurisdiction percentile values should be interpreted in the same manner. Percentiles at or above the 80th percentile for any target areas, or at or below the 20th percentile for areas at risk for undercoding, indicate that the SNF may be at a higher risk for improper Medicare payments. The greater (or smaller, for areas at risk for undercoding) the percentile value, in particular the national and/or jurisdiction percentile, the greater consideration should be given to that target area.
