The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is withdrawing a notice from January 5, 2021, about a funding opportunity to develop new measures for radiology quality and safety in hospitals. The withdrawal is due to delays that prevent the measures from being developed on time. CMS will no longer support this project through a cooperative agreement, meaning they will not accept applications for this specific funding opportunity. The decision does not involve any new requirements for reporting or information collection.
Simple Explanation
CMS had a plan to help hospitals make sure their X-ray pictures were high quality and safe, but now they've decided not to do that plan because it's taking too long.
