Figure 4-2. LTCH Facility-Level Quality Measure Reprt CASPER Reprts Submit Page Begin Date and End Date values define the date range f the measure calculatins t select fr the reprt. A drp-dwn list prvides the end dates f the calendar quarters fr which pressure ulcer measure calculatins are available. The default value is the end date f the mst recently calculated quarter. Yu may select a different quarter end date frm the list. Begin Date is a read-nly field that displays the first day f the 12-mnth perid ending with the specified End Date. The Influenza Seasn Dates field is a read-nly display f the influenza seasn dates in effect during the perid identified by the End Date and Begin Date. NOTE: The influenza seasn reprting perid is always July 1 thrugh June 30. The earliest influenza seasn fr which measure data are available is 07/01/2014 thrugh 06/30/2015.
