CMS Reopens CMP Reinvestment Program with Updates

Last week, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released QSO-23-23-NH, which reopens the Civil Money Penalty Reinvestment Program (CMPRP) with many updates to the structure of the program. CMS argues the changes were necessary due to significant growth in the cost and scope of projects over recent years. The agency believes this has caused inconsistent availability and inequities to access to the funds.

The memo outlines allowable and non-allowable uses of the funds and makes a request for information from facilities regarding facility-wide Wi-Fi. A new application for funding can be found on the updated CMPRP website.
