Notice
of Participation
The hospital agrees to follow procedures for participating in the PCHQR Program as outlined in the federal regulations found in the Federal Register, or is indicating its decision to decline participation.
Each hospital must complete this "PCHQR Notice of Participation" as outlined in the federal regulations found in the Federal Register. In an effort to alleviate the burden associated with submitting this form annually, effective with the PCHQR Notice submitted for participation in FY 2014 or later, a hospital that indicated its intent to participate will be considered an active PCHQR participant until CMS determines a need to pledge again, or the hospital submits a withdrawal to CMS.
This information is in compliance with the CMS guidelines for hospitals submitting their quality performance data in accordance with Section 3005 of the Affordable Care Act. Hospitals must also continue to display quality information for public viewing as required by section 1866(k)(4) of the Social Security Act. Before this information is displayed, hospitals will be permitted to review their information as it is recorded. Eligible hospitals must follow the regulations as outlined in the federal regulations.
