CMS UPDATE: Public commenting of quality measures is temporarily unavailable, as NQF will no longer serve as the consensus-based entity for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as of March 26, 2023.

NQF is working with CMS and the successor contractor to make a smooth transition of the endorsement and maintenance work, which will include further communication to stakeholders regarding this body of work, including public commenting for the fall 2022 measures, after March 26. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

The Renal Standing Committee oversees NQF’s renal measures. Measures in this portfolio address conditions, treatments, interventions, or procedures relating to kidney disease.
