Minimum Data Set (MDS) Nursing facilities, skilled nursing facility units, and swing bed hospital providers are required to conduct accurate, standardized, reproducible assessments of each resident’s/patient’s functional capacity using the Minimum Data Set (MDS). The automated MDS system, known as the Quality Improvement Evaluation System Assessment Submission and Processing System (QIES ASAP,) is a critical component of the State Agency and CMS operations, and provides the means for transmission of assessment data to CMS for validating payments under the Medicare Skilled Nursing Facility Prospective Payment System for nursing homes and swing bed hospital providers. The QIES ASAP components are developed, distributed, maintained, and upgraded centrally by CMS. This is a federal database owned by CMS and, as such, is subject to the requirements of the Federal Privacy Act and the MDS System of Records (MDS-SOR) notice. The MDS-SOR describes the legal requirements regarding privacy and disclosure of information by CMS. Contact Information |
