The Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) is requesting approval of revisions to the
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility-Patient Assessment Instrument
(IRF-PAI) Version 4.1 that will be effective on October 1, 2024. On
July 27, 2022 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
(CMS) issued a final rule (87 FR 47038) which finalized proposed
modifications to the collection of quality reporting data in the
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Quality Reporting Program (IRF
QRP). Per the final rule CMS will require IRFs to start collecting
assessment data using IRF-PAI Version 4.1 for all IRF patients
regardless of payer beginning October 1, 2024. The rule is
available here:

CMS is asking for approval of the IRF-PAI Version 4.1, which will
have an October 1, 2024 implementation date.

There is no change in the
amount of time it will take to complete a single IRF PAI 4.1 as
compared to the IRF PAI 4.0. The increase in burden is a result of
collecting the IRF PAI 4.1 on all patients regardless of payer,
which increases the total number of IRF PAI 4.1 assessments
collected across all IRFs. Therefore, the burden will increase from
704,707 hours across all IRFs to a total of 1,187,475 hours
beginning October 1, 2024.
