Non-Financial Data: Why did HRSA require Reporting Entities to report patient metrics?

HRSA required Reporting Entities to report patient metrics to gather information on the number of patients treated by Provider Relief Fund and/or ARP Rural recipients. Depending on recipient type, these patients may be treated in either inpatient, outpatient, or residential settings. These metrics enable HRSA to quantify respective volumes of inpatient, in-person, and virtual outpatient visits, as well as emergency visit patients.
