New Website Platform for Survey and Certification Information
Physician Practice Insider, September 4, 2017
On Aug. 22, CMS issued a memorandum to State Survey Agency Directors regarding information related to the new QCOR website. The QCOR website launch replaces the previously known Survey and Certification Providing Data Quickly (S&C PDQ) system. The system imports data from a variety of data platforms, such as the Certification and Surveyor Provider Enhanced Reporting (CASPER) national database. However, S&C PDQ’s functionality and ease of access of information to providers and suppliers was limited, therefore CMS removed the requirements for username and passwords for accessing the data on the site, which has now become the new QCOR website.
