The Secretary's Guidance for Hospital Reporting and FAQ and the new CMS Interim Final Rule with Comment Period (IFC) require all hospitals who are licensed to provide 24 hour care to report all of the mandatory non-supply fields seven days a week within 1 business day of the reporting date (except for psychiatric and rehabilitation facilities who must report weekly). This includes short term, long term, critical access, childrens, Medicaid only short term, Medicaid only childrens, Distinct Part Psychiatric Hospital, and Medicaid only long term hospitals and refers to items 1 - 24 in the Guidance for Hospital Reporting and FAQ. Hospitals are only required to report supply related fields (items 26, 27, 29, 30, 31) on Wednesdays.
