titleOctober 5, 2023: 2024 ORYX® Performance Measure Reporting Requirements for Assisted Living Communities (ALCs)

Dear Colleague:

This is a reminder that Joint Commission–accredited assisted living communities (ALCs) are required to report ORYX Performance Measurement data to The Joint Commission via the Direct Data Submission Platform (DDSP) on all measures for all four quarters effective 1/1/2024.

Organizations have access to the CY2023 platform now and may elect to submit all/some/no data for CY2023. We encourage organizations to log in to the DDSP to increase their understanding of the platform and data entry in advance of the requirement.

Data is entered quarterly. The CY2024 DDSP opens for data entry on April 1, 2024.  

For those organizations who have not onboarded to the DDSP, they must complete the onboarding process. 

·    The initial invitation to onboard to the DDSP was sent to ALC organizations in prior months. Those invitations have expired. Please send an e-mail to hcooryx@jointcommission.org to confirm the Signature Authority for your organization and request the invitation to the DDSP be resent.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

·    The DDSP is the platform used for submitting ORYX performance measurement data to The Joint Commission.

·    Additional information, including requirements, timeline, measure specifications, FAQs, and recorded webinars are available on our website: https://www.jointcommission.org/measurement/accreditation---alc/

·    Staff with existing access to the DDSP can log in via The Joint Commission website: https://www.jointcommission.org/login/ .

QUESTIONS
If you need assistance or have questions with any portion of the Platform, please submit a support ticket via the DDSP “Need Help?” button.

If you have non-DDSP questions, please contact hcooryx@jointcommission.org and include your HCO ID in the subject line.
