The Secretary is also required to establish a Medicaid Quality Measurement Program that will fund the development, testing, and validation of emerging and innovative evidence-based measures and to subsequently publish recommended changes to the initial core measure set. Not later than September 30, 2014 and annually thereafter the Secretary is required to collect, analyze, and make publically available the information reported by the States. AHRQ is working collaboratively with CMS to identify and publish for public comment an initial preliminary core set of measures by January 1, 2011. The initial core set of measures must then be finalized by January 1, 2012.
