Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) Validation Template

In support of Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) inpatient data validation for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Payment Determination:

• Each hospital selected for CAUTI validation is to produce a list of positive urine cultures for intensive care unit (ICU) patients.

• The line list should include all final results for all positive urine cultures with >= 105 colony-forming units (CFUs)/ml collected during an ICU stay.

• For each patient confirm:

1) The patient had an ICU admission during this hospital stay; and

2) The patient had a positive urine culture collected during the ICU stay with >= 105 CFU/ml. (If the patient was not in the ICU when the culture was drawn, do

not include these on the Validation Template. Exclude positive cultures with more than 2 organisms present even if results are >=105 CFU/ml.)

Sheet 4: FY2022 Submission Instructions

USER GUIDE AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
































---> The FY 2022 Validation Template User Guide and Submission Instructions, along with supporting documentation, can be found on QualityNet.















To access, select [Hospitals–Inpatient], and then [Data Management], followed by [Chart-Abstracted Data Validation], and lastly [Resources]:















https://www.qualitynet.org/inpatient/data-management/chart-abstracted-data-validation/resources
































The only acceptable method of sending Validation Templates is through the QualityNet Secure Portal Secure File Transfer Mailbox.















Validation Templates contain Protected Health Information (PHI) and cannot be sent via personal email -- even if a template were sent encrypted from a secure















workplace email, it would still be considered a security violation.
































It is recommended to submit Validation Templates at least a week prior to the submission deadline in case there are difficulties with















transmitting files and to allow time for revisions/corrections when necessary.
































If you are unable to log in to the Secure Portal, the first person to contact is your hospital's QualityNet Security Administrator.















If your Security Administrator is unable to reestablish your access, you will need to contact the QualityNet HelpDesk at (866) 288-8912.















It is recommended hospitals have two QualityNet Security Administrators at all times to ensure the ability to upload Validation















Templates by the established submission deadlines.































TEMPLATE COMPLETION & SUBMISSION TIPS

































Prior to submitting Validation Templates to CMS, it is recommended that quality assurance is performed on the data within the template.















Review the [Definitions] tab to ensure correct information is entered in each field.
































ü Do not add, delete, rename, or change the order of the tabs.














ü Do not add, delete, or rename column headings.














ü Do not leave the first row blank or skip rows between patient data.














ü Make sure the Provider ID/CCN field is exactly 6 numeric characters (do not add a hyphen)














ü Make sure the State field contains the 2 character abbreviation for your state, not the full state name.














ü Verify the Calendar Quarter listed on each Validation Template is correct.














ü Review all dates for accuracy and correct format as specified on the [Definitions] tab.














ü If a patient has not been discharged from the hospital, enter ‘Not Discharged’ for the Discharge Date field.














ü The 'Positive Urine Cultures' column cannot include rows listing both "Yes" and "No"; entering "No" indicates no positive cultures for the quarter.














ü Ensure all NHSN ICU locations are within the approved NHSN drop down on the template. Hospital-assigned locations will not be accepted.














ü Be sure to populate all required fields on each consecutive row if there were multiple final positive cultures collected for the same patient.














ü Perform quality check of data entered into this template against what was entered into NHSN; stay mindful of differing CMS and NHSN deadlines.














ü Check to ensure any cases with a separate Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) or Inpatient Psychiatric Facility (IPF) CCN are not included on the template.














ü Append the file name with the 6-digit CMS Certification Number (CCN)/Provider ID, followed by an underscore and the quarter.
















For example: 012345_3QYY_FYXX_CAUTI_ValTemp.xlsx






























• When submitting templates via the [Compose Mail] button under the Mailbox section on the Secure File Transfer screen, input the subject of the message
















with the 6-digit CCN/Provider ID, Submission Quarter, and Template type(s) attached.
















For example: CCN 012345 3QYY CLABSI & CAUTI Validation Templates






























• When choosing recipients, do NOT select any individual person(s) from the recipient list; only select the "VALIDATION CONTRACTOR" recipient.
















Individual accounts are not regularly monitored—sending to any one individual risks delay in processing.































• As soon as the Validation Support Contractor has downloaded the template(s), Secure File Transfer will deliver an automatic email letting the submitter
















know the file has been downloaded. After a file has been downloaded, it will be in the queue for processing.































• It is suggested that users verify a message has been sent by clicking on the [Sent] link under the Mailbox section of the Secure File Transfer screen.
















The message should be in your Sent folder with a status of "Received".















NOTE: It typically takes a couple minutes for messages to appear in the Sent folder with a "Received" status. Please, do NOT re-send messages















multiple times, as this significantly delays processing and requires version confirmation.































• You will receive email confirmation (usually within 2 business days of being downloaded) from the Validation Support Contractor letting you know the Validation
















Templates were processed. If you do not receive a processing confirmation, please include your hospital's 6-digit CCN/Provider ID in an















email to [email protected]
