For all Medicare beneficiaries, hospitals must deliver valid, written notice of a beneficiary's rights as a hospital inpatient, including discharge appeal rights. The hospital must use a standardized notice, as specified by CMS. This is satisfied by IM delivery. When a QIO notifies a hospital that a beneficiary has requested an expedited discharge, the hospital must deliver a detailed notice to the beneficiary as soon as possible but no later than noon of the day after the QIO's notification. This is satisfied by DND delivery.
The latest form for Hospital Notices: IM / DND (CMS-10065/10066) expires 2022-12-31 and can be found here.
