Quality incentive payments are required by the Ohio Revised Code to be paid to nursing home providers based on the number of quality points the provider is awarded. These quality points are determined by an online quality measures questionnaire created by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS). Facilities can earn up to 10 quality points. In order to be considered for the July 1, 2012 quality payment, nursing home providers must complete this survey electronically no later than May 31, 2012 to earn the points.
