How to read the register

A row means two federal files do not agree, or a field CMS asks for is empty. It is not a finding that a facility hid an owner, and it is not an accusation. Most disagreements have ordinary causes: a facility enrolled under a new number after a sale, a non-profit or county home that has officers but no equity owners, a filing that left the percentage field blank. We publish the list so that CMS, researchers and facilities can see and fix what the files show. A facility that believes a row is wrong should correct its record with CMS, which is the source of every value here, and may write to us through the contact page.

No PECOS match 475
No PECOS enrollment matched to the CCN. The facility is certified in Care Compare but no Skilled Nursing Facility enrollment in the PECOS files carries its CCN, so none of its ownership disclosures can be read.
No ownership-interest party 1,437
PECOS enrollment lists no ownership-interest party. The facility's current PECOS enrollment names officers, directors, managing employees or other parties, but no direct, indirect or partnership ownership interest (role codes 34, 35, 38, 39, 85, 86). Non-profit and government facilities have no equity owners to list, so most of these rows are expected; the check matters for for-profit facilities.
Owners without a percentage 293
Ownership-interest owners disclosed without any ownership percentage. Every ownership-interest row on the facility's current enrollment leaves the percentage blank, so the share each owner holds cannot be read from the file.
PE/REIT in PECOS, individuals in Care Compare 3
PE or REIT owner disclosed in PECOS, Care Compare lists individuals only. PECOS flags a private-equity company or a REIT in an ownership or control role, while the Care Compare ownership file for the same facility lists only individuals.
Change flag without PECOS record 1
Ownership changed in the last 12 months per Care Compare, no PECOS change of ownership in 36 months. Care Compare flags an ownership change in the last twelve months, but the PECOS Change of Ownership file has no record for the facility in the 36 months before the vintage.
