What is the Dialysis Facility Report?

Guide to 2009 Dialysis Facility Reports: Overview, Methodology, Interpretation
The Dialysis Facility Report is conducted each year by the University of Michigan Kidney Epidemiology and Cost Center (UM-KECC) with funding from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).  The Report is based on data from Medicare dialysis and hospitalization claims, Medical Evidence Forms (CMS-2728), Death Notification Forms (CMS-2746), Annual Facility Survey Reports (CMS-2744), other CMS data and Social Security Administration data. 

It includes updated quality measures that were posted on the Dialysis Facility Compare (DFC) website in November 2009 and information that was sent to your State Survey Agency (SSA) in September 2009 for the State’s use in survey activities.

Please note that these data could be useful in quality improvement and assurance activities.  The information contained in this report facilitates comparisons of patient characteristics, treatment patterns, transplantation rates, hospitalization rates, and mortality rates to local and national averages.
