How is the QDM updated and where can I find information about proposed changes?
CMS updates the QDM as needed, but no more frequently than annually, based on the QDI User Group’s recommendations evaluating stakeholder requests. QDI User Group Meeting Notes provide information about future changes to QDM. Versions of QDM used for specific performance/reporting years are available here.
