  1. incentive bonus payments per $1M in claims. Higher values are better. This dollar amount represents the incentive payments that would be made, based on the published incentive payment multiplier, on claims of $1M. Note that the documentation states: "This multiplier represents the SNF VBP payment incentive after taking into account the 2% withhold that funds the Program. When making payments to SNF claims, the adjusted federal per diem rate will be multiplied by this factor. For example, an incentive payment multiplier of 0.99 would reflect a net payment reduction of 1%." Currently, the source data uses a neutral payment incentive multiplier of "1" whenever a data entry states that a facility"... did not have sufficient data to calculate a performance score." For our benchmarking purposes, we have replaced this neutral multiplier with N/A for not applicable.

    • In some cases, the actual street-level addresses were not found anywhere, especially when only PO Boxes were provided, so in those cases, zip code coordinates were used. And because the average land area of a zip code is around 90 square miles, it is possible that some locations may be misrepresented.
