EQRS Monthly Stakeholder Calls Suspended

EQRS Monthly Stakeholder Calls Suspended

 

May 28, 2025

As part of ongoing federal budget reduction initiatives, the End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Quality Program Support (QPS) team has been directed to suspend monthly EQRS stakeholder meetings and the EQRS Quarterly Newsletter beginning in May 2025. CMS understands the importance of providing training and updates to new and existing EQRS users. This support will continue through the distribution of CMS memos, EQRS News Flashes, Question and Answer Documents, User Guides, and Quick Start Guides. In addition, these and other resources will be added to the MyCROWNWeb.org website shortly after they are distributed.

For assistance with EQRS technical issues, please contact the Center for Clinical Standards and Quality (CCSQ) Service Center. The CCSQ Service Center is open Monday-Friday 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern Time and can be reached via phone at 866-288-8912, email at qnetsupport-esrd@cms.hhs.gov or online at the CCSQ Support Center.

For assistance with general EQRS and ESRD QIP questions, please contact the End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Quality Incentive Program (QIP) Team via the QualityNet Q&A Tool.
