The Preliminary October 2024 Interim Performance Reports (IPRs) for the expanded HHVBP Model have been published on iQIES. The quarterly IPRs provide home health agencies (HHAs) with the cohort assignment, performance year measure data for the 12 most recent months, and the interim Total Performance Score (TPS). Using the IPR, agencies can assess and track their performance relative to peers in their respective cohort throughout the expanded Model performance year. The October 2024 IPRs also report preliminary Achievement Thresholds (AT) and Benchmarks (BM) by volume-based cohort for the quality measure set applicable to the third performance year, CY 2025.
As a reminder the performance measures for CY2025 performance year have been updates. An agency will receive an October 2024 IPR if: it was Medicare certified prior to January 1, 2023, and meets the minimum threshold of data for at least one (1) quality measure in the quarterly reporting period for the performance year.
