Which assessment is NOT listed under IMPACT Act reporting items?

• A. Skin Integrity
• B. Functional Status
• C. Medication Reconciliation
• D. Medication Adherence Level

Answer: (D)

IMPACT Act reporting is built around standardized patient assessment data elements that span multiple post-acute care domains. Functional status and skin integrity are both commonly captured as part of those standardized items, reflecting a patient’s ability to perform daily activities and the condition of their skin, respectively. Medication reconciliation is explicitly included as a reporting item to ensure accurate medication information across transitions of care. Medication adherence level, while important to care quality, is not listed as a separate IMPACT Act reporting data element. The standardized data items focus on reconciliation and management of medications rather than measuring adherence as its own data point.
