Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 Hospice Wage Index and Payment Rate Update, Hospice Conditions of Participation Updates, Hospice Quality Reporting Program Requirements, and Hospice Certifying Physician Provider Enrollment Requirements Proposed Rule (CMS-1835-P)

On April 11, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a proposed rule (CMS-1835-P) that provides updates to the fiscal year (FY) 2026 Hospice Quality Reporting Program (HQRP). This rule proposes to correct an error in the regulations text at § 418.312(j). This rule also reinforces updates on the HQRP and the Hospice Outcomes and Patient Evaluation (HOPE) instrument and public reporting, future quality measures (QMs), and the transition of hospice providers from the Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (QIES) to the internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (iQIES).  Finally, this proposed rule includes requests for information (RFI) regarding future QM concepts for the HQRP and transitioning to digital quality measures (dQM).

The proposed rule went on display at the Federal Register and will be available at: https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection/current
