Performance Score Reports are now available for the FY 2026 Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Program. The performance score for the FY 2026 program year is based on performance across four quality measures: SNF 30-Day All-Cause Readmission Measure, SNF Healthcare-Associated Infections Requiring Hospitalization, Total Nursing Staff Turnover, and Total Nurse Staffing Hours per Resident Day.

Access your report in iQIES. Correction requests should be submitted to the SNF VBP Program Help Desk at SNFVBPquestions@cms.hhs.gov with the subject line “SNF VBP Review and Correction Inquiry” and should include the CMS Certification Number (CCN), name of SNF, correction request, and reason for requesting the correction.

Providers have until August 31 to submit requests for corrections for their performance score and ranking.
