We recommend that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services assess the costs and benefits of implementing the following recommendations and if CMS determines that the benefits outweigh the costs, take action to work with CDC and with State health departments to determine the feasibility of using comparable data elements to collect COVID-19 data and the feasibility of monitoring substantial differences in the data and, if determined feasible, take actions to provide the public with more complete and accurate COVID-19 data for nursing homes.
