Hospital-Specific Reports

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) produces Hospital-Specific Reports (HSRs) that include hospital-level performance data shown on the Measure detail dashboard and available for download as a Portable Document Format (PDF) and comma-separated values (CSV) file, as well as patient-level data available for download as CSV files. Each HSR includes the payment reduction percentage, payment adjustment factor, dual proportion, peer group assignment, measure results, ratio of Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) base operating diagnosis-related group (DRG) payments per measure to total Medicare FFS payments, national observed readmission rates, detailed discharge-level data, and risk factor information. Hospitals have 30 days during the Review and Correction period to review their HSR data and confirm the calculations are correct before public reporting and before CMS uses the results to apply the payment adjustment factor.

HSRs can be accessed directly from the Hospital Quality Reporting (HQR) system (login required). Follow the steps below to access your HSR via the HQR system. You can view a brief instructional video on how to access your reports.

Step 1: Log in to the HQR system using a Health Care Quality Improvement System (HCQIS) Access Roles and Profile (HARP) account

  • The HQR system now requires users to have a HARP account with access to Unified File Management/Managed File Transfer to log in. If you have a HARP account, visit the HQR login page and log in using your HARP user ID and password. If you do not have a HARP account, you may register for a HARP ID.

Step 2: Access your HSR in HQR

  • Log in to the HQR system using your HARP ID credentials and navigate through the steps listed below to download your HSR:
    • From the left-hand navigation menu, select “Program Reporting”
    • Then select “Measure details”
    • Next, select the “Measure detail dashboard”
    • On the Measure Detail Dashboard, select the program in which you are interested (Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program).
    • Select the program year in which you are interested (2027). If applicable, select the name of the facility you are interested in and its CMS Certification Number (CCN).
    • Your hospital’s performance results will appear. Click on the header of each section to expand the data table within each section (e.g., click on “Performance summary” to expand the Performance summary data table.)
    • To download your hospital’s patient- and performance-level CSV files and performance-level PDFs, select “Export,” and then choose the option you are interested in. The files will be downloaded through your browser. Once downloaded, open the ZIP file to view your hospital’s information.

If you have any issues accessing your HSR, please contact the Center for Clinical Standards and Quality Service Center at qnetsupport@cms.hhs.gov, or by calling, toll free, 866-288-8912 (TRS 711), weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET. For questions related to HARP registration, please visit the HARP Help page or contact qnetsupport@cms.hhs.gov.

Users can also submit a question via the QualityNet Question and Answer Tool. Select “Ask a Question”, select “HRRP - Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program” under the program list, then choose “Hospital-specific report & requests” from the topic list. Include the hospital’s name and CCN in the request.

FY 2023 Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program Mock HSR This file provides an example HSR using mock data. The mock HSR shows how CMS presents results for hospitals that did not receive an HSR, for example, because they were not open as of May 11, 2022.

Note: as finalized in the FY 2022 IPPS/LTCH PPS final rule, CMS is suppressing the pneumonia readmission measure in FY 2023 HRRP payment reduction calculations due to COVID-19’s substantial impact on this measure (86 FR 45254-45256). CMS is still calculating measure results for the pneumonia readmission measure and the results are included in the HSR. However, the pneumonia readmission measure results do not contribute to FY 2023 payment reduction calculations.
