Network Facility Goals

• Current Network Facility Goals July 1. 2010 to June 30, 2011
• Past Network Facility Goals July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010

Facility Representative Quarterly Report (FRQR)

Beginning in June of 2010, Heartland Kidney Network (with the approval of its Boards) is requiring all dialysis centers to submit a Facility Representative Quarterly Report (FRQR). The designated Facility Representative should complete the report and fax it to the Network by each quarter's due date. We like to identify those facilities that are high preforming and exhibiting best practices. The Network is also charged by CMS with identifying facilities that consistently fail to comply with Network goals and/or are not providing appropriate medical care. This new requirement was announced formally as a part of the Network's Corporate Compliance Program during the 2010 Annual Business Meeting held in Kansas City, Missouri on January 13, 2010.

FRQR Due Dates:

First Quarter (January - March): Due April 15th
Second Quarter (April - June): Due July 15th
Third Quarter (July - September): Due October 15th
Fourth Quarter (October - December): Due January 15th
