Reminder of Upcoming Deadline for Submitting Facility-Specific Supplemental Questions for Approval
folder_openOther Announcementscalendar_todayPosted January 13, 2015

All facility-specific supplemental questions and their proposed placement in the ICH CAHPS Survey questionnaire must be submitted to the Coordination Team for review and approval. If any of your in-center hemodialysis (ICH) facility clients are planning to add any new facility-specific supplemental questions to the ICH CAHPS Survey, please send those questions and their proposed placement to the Coordination Team via e-mail at ichcahps@rti.org on or before 5:00 PM Eastern Time (ET) on January 16, 2015.

Please note that facility-specific questions that were approved by the Coordination Team prior to the 2014 ICH CAHPS Survey do not need to be approved again unless the questionnaire wording or response options changed. The Coordination Team will accept facility-specific supplemental questions for review after the January 16th deadline; however, approval of those questions may not be granted in time for the questions to be included in the CY 2015 ICH CAHPS Spring Survey. Survey vendors should work with their client ICH facilities to decide on the use of new facility-specific questions and submit the questions to the Coordination Team as soon as possible to avoid a delay in approval.

Please contact the Coordination Team via e-mail at ichcahps@rti.org or by calling 1-888-245-8083 if you have any questions.
