iQIES for Minimum Data Set (MDS) Submissions Begins on April 17, 2023
CMS is excited to announce that the transition of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) submission to the Internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES) will occur on Monday, April 17, 2023.
What you need to know
- iQIES ASAP (Assessment Submission and Processing) system will be turned off at 8 p.m. EST on April 13, 2023, to prepare for the transition. Providers should submit completed MDS records to QIES prior to 8 p.m. EST on April 13, 2023, or wait until 8 a.m. EST on April 17, 2023, and submit data in iQIES.
- One staff member must be assigned and approved as the facility Provider Security Official (PSO) prior to April 17, 2023. Failure to obtain access to iQIES prior to this date will impact your ability to submit MDS records. The PSO must work for the provider and will be responsible for approving all other users for their facility.
