Survey Overview

The ICH-CAHPS® Survey aims to measure and improve patient-centeredness of care. It produces six quality reporting measures of patient experience:

The standardized ICH-CAHPS® Survey instrument is composed of the following measures:

  • Ratings of kidney doctors
  • Ratings of dialysis center
  • Ratings of dialysis center staff
  • Nephrologists' communication and caring
  • Quality of dialysis center care and operations
  • Providing information to patients

The ICH-CAHPS® survey is intended for patients over 18-years-old receiving outpatient hemodialysis for three or more months.

In-center hemodialysis (ICH) facilities that served 30 or more survey-eligible patients in the calendar year (CY) must administer the In-center Hemodialysis CAHPS® (ICH CAHPS®) Survey in the spring and fall of the following year to comply with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) quality reporting requirements.

  • If the facility served fewer than 30 survey-eligible patients in the calendar year (CY) preceding the exemption request:
    • The Facility must apply for exemption every year
    • The Facility must submit a Participation Exemption for Size Form to apply for exemption
