Qualification Information

The parent hospital's Qualification Information is displayed for your reference. You may update the parent entity's DSH %, cost reporting period, and filing dates, if necessary.

This information will not be available if the parent hospital's registration is in "Pending" status.

• Filing Date The date when the Cost Center report was filed (required field for all hospital registrations). This date must be (1) greater than the cost reporting period end date, (2) not older than a year, and (3) not a future date./Calculation Date – For CAH, DSH, RRC, and SCH hospitals, the field label will appear as "Filing Date" only. For CAN and PED hospitals, it will appear as "Filing Date/Calculation Date."

• Provider Change of Ownership – If you reply Yes, to the question whether the provider has changed ownership, the system will prompt for the effective date of the change and display an alert that you must submit Worksheet S-2 from your latest cost report.

  The change of ownership date must be between the cost reporting period "From" date and yesterday, inclusive. Upon OPA approval, the ownership change date will be applied to the parent hospital and all associated child entities.
