during the COVID19 PHE for eight quarters.
Response: We thank commenters for their support of this proposal on public reporting for refreshes affected by the exceptions.

Instead, we will continue to post state and national averages for HH QRP

measures. This information will help consumers understand relative performance at national and local levels in light of the COVID19 PHE.
Given the overall positive response to our proposal, we believe that the proposed approach balances fairness to providers with a commitment to transparency and information for consumers.
Final Decision: We are finalizing our proposal to use the CAR scenario for refreshes for January 2022 for OASISbased measures and for refreshes from
