Hospital Data & Validation
As part of the Medicare Beneficiary Protection Project, Ohio KePRO helps Ohio hospitals to accurately abstract data related to the quality measures that focus on inpatient processes, outpatient processes, mortality rates, and patient satisfaction topics, and to submit the information to a national data warehouse on schedule. Medicare-certified hospitals under the inpatient prospective payment system (IPPS) must meet data reporting requirements in order to receive the full annual payment update. Other hospitals, such as critical access hospitals, are also encouraged to participate.
The QualityNet website 
is a comprehensive resource for the complex (and routinely updated) specifications related to Medicare's hospital quality measures. The password-protected area of the site, My QualityNet, is used to submit and review individual hospital's data.
