Apiary Labs AuditCare · CMS IQR Program
Your year-round compliance command center.
AuditCare maps your hospital's compliance posture across CMS structural measures, produces stakeholder assignments, evidence checklists, and executive summaries — and keeps you ahead of what's coming next. Six modules are live: three CMS IQR structural measures, Joint Commission NPSG, CMS Conditions of Participation, and Hospital Value-Based Purchasing.
📅
Active: CMS IQR Structural Measures · Submission window April 1 – May 15, 2026
Three mandatory CMS measures are live now. Complete your assessments to generate your gap analysis, stakeholder matrix, evidence checklists, and submission guide. The May 15 window is one milestone — your compliance posture is tracked year-round.
4Ms Domain 3 updated — malnutrition screening now required
CMS added validated malnutrition screening (MNA-SF, MUST, or equivalent) to the Age-Friendly Hospital Measure Domain 3 requirements in August 2025. Hospitals that did not update their admission protocols are at risk of a domain gap on the CY 2025 attestation.

HCHE scores now live on Care Compare — January 2026
Hospital Commitment to Health Equity scores from the CY 2024 attestation cycle are now publicly visible on CMS Care Compare as of January 2026. Patients, payers, and accreditors can see your current score. Your CY 2025 submission (due May 15) will update those scores in fall 2026.

📌
PSSM submission now via NHSN — not CMS HQR
The Patient Safety Structural Measure moved to CDC NHSN for submission in 2024. Hospitals attempting to submit via the CMS HQR portal will not find it there. NHSN login credentials are separate from CMS credentials — confirm your facility has an active NHSN OrgID before the submission window opens.
Important: All results and AI-generated content are based on self-reported answers. Not legal or compliance advice. Verify against primary CMS and Joint Commission sources before attestation decisions.
