The agency currently posts deficiency report information on the Nursing Home Compare and Five-Star Nursing Home Quality Rating System websites. The information is based on data from Form CMS-2567, Statement of Deficiencies and Plan of Correction, and goes back for 15 months.
Beginning in April, the agency will make older information available and will provide more detail about the deficiencies cited in the reports.
CMS does not plan post plans of correction online, but they can be requested from CMS State Survey Agencies or directly from facilities. Federal law mandates that these reports must be provided upon request.
