CROWNWeb Notifications and Accretions:
Importance of Resolving
8/22/2013 O 9
• CROWNWeb cross-checks the data entered into CROWNWeb against data in other CMS databases for accuracy and validity.
• CROWNWeb uses the Action List screen to note discrepancies between CROWNWeb and CMS’ Renal Management Information System (REMIS) database.

REMIS gathers information from various CMS databases, and
compares that data to CROWNWeb, the system of
record for ESRD.
CROWNWeb receives discrepancy information each
night, and assigns Notifications and Accretions to facilities based on that information.

The Cross-Check Process
8/22/2013 O 11
Notification
• A discrepancy in patient data between a CMS database and CROWNWeb.
• CROWNWeb has “Identity” and “Event/Treatment” Notifications.
Accretion
• An ESRD patient identified in another CMS database that appears to be associated with your facility in the CMS database.
• The patient is not currently admitted to your facility in CROWNWeb.
• Data discrepancies are viewable on the Action List screen as a “Notification” or an “Accretion.”
• All users are required to work towards resolving Notifications and Accretions within 30 days from when they are issued.
Why Notifications and Accretions?
8/22/2013 O 12
Accretions
ACCEPT – The user agrees with the external source and will admit the patient in CROWNWeb.
REJECT – You don’t agree with the Accretion. You’ve researched and the patient is not ESRD.
INVESTIGATE – Informs other users that the Notification is under review.
ESCALATE – The facility submits the Accretion to the Network to be reassigned to the correct facility.
Notification
ACCEPT – The user agrees with the patient data provided by the external source.
REJECT – After research, the user does not agree with the Notification.

How do I change my role in CROWNWeb?
• Complete a new QualityNet Identity Management System (QIMS) Part B form.
• Provide the Part B form to your CROWNWeb Facility Administrator.
• Facility Administrators must submit their new Part B form to the QualityNet Help Desk.
• The Part B form must be kept with the user’s QIMS application.

What should I select as the “Race” of a Hispanic or Latino patient?
• Fill in the race with which the patient most associates himself or herself.
• Definitions of each race can be found on page 4 of the CMS-2728 form instructions.
Patient Attributes
8/22/2013 M 17
We have a “New to ESRD” patient who needs an Initial CMS-2728 form. He was previously admitted to a facility that he never visited. How do we resolve this?
1. Determine if the previous facility submits their data via batch or manually.
2. Contact the previous facility to delete the patient’s record from CROWNWeb and internal system (if needed).
3. Admit the patient as “New to ESRD”.

We had a transient patient who came to our facility for treatment at the end of one month. We discharged the patient at the beginning of the following month, but the name still appears on the Clinical screen. What do we do?
• Patients appear on the Clinical screen for a reporting month if the patient’s admit record is associated with that facility as of the first of that month.
• Enter details regarding the treatment performed by your facility. If labs were not drawn, facilities must complete the minimum required fields.
• You can leave the clinical fields blank if the patient returns to his/her home facility or transfers to another facility at the beginning of the month and your facility DID NOT treat the patient at all.
