If my program begins re-rating before January 31, 2025, will I be held to the revised evidence requirements?

Any program that has started their first rating or re-rating cycle and signed their Participant Agreement before January 31, 2025, will move into “Accepted” status in the QUALITYstarsNY data system. Any program in the system status of “Accepted” before January 31 will be held to the current version of the Standards, not the revised Standards. You can access your program’s QUALITYstarsNY Participation page in the QUALITYstarsNY data system to see if your program is in the status of “Accepted” before the January 31 implementation date. Please speak to your Quality Improvement Specialist if you are unable to determine if your program is in Accepted status before the January 31 implementation date.
