Nursing homes are required to report data to the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). The data is then submitted from NHSN to CMS for upload into Nursing Home Compare.
Centers who review Nursing Home Compare and identify issues to their data may make corrections to data entered into the NHSN system by:
- Logging into the NHSN COVID-19 LTCF module
- Choose the relevant date on the calendar feature
- Edit the inaccurate data
- Click “SAVE” before exiting
NHSN submits data to CMS every Monday morning. When CMS receives the data, the center’s revisions will be reflected with the next update of the CMS Nursing Home Compare webpage. The change will not be immediate due to the delayed upload to Nursing Home Compare.
