CMS's description
This table lists the data collection periods for the quality measures displayed for Nursing Homes including Rehab Services as well as the intervals for complaint citations and citations on focused infection control inspections. It also includes the data collection period for the nursing home staffing measures. The data collection periods for some short-stay measures differ slightly from the measure periods in the MDS Quality Measure file due to the look-back periods for these measures.
