Declaring an achievement for payment in CQRS National

At the end of each payment period, a provisional payment is calculated by CQRS based on the data submitted by you in your capacity as a Service Provider.

To be sure payments are accurate, they are reviewed and agreed by the Service Provider and Commissioning Organisation before being paid.

Current achievement for each Quality Service in which you are participating can be viewed and reviewed from the Achievement Results sub-tab.

This job aid is aimed at Service Providers with the role of ‘Declaration Management’ who declare Quality Services for payment.

Note: The data that appears in this job aid is for training purposes only and does not represent actual data.

  1. From the CQRS Achievement screen, select the Declare sub-tab.

If a payment declaration is awaiting Service Provider approval, you may update the Notes field and/or approve the payment declaration.

Some payment configurations may be designated as No Declaration Required, which automatically approves the payment declaration without action by you. Configurations may also be designated as No Approval Required, which automatically approves the payment declaration without action by the Commissioning Organisation.

2. If required, details of the declaration can be generated by selecting the Run Achievement Summary Report link in the upper right corner of the screen.

NOTE: The newly declared achievement moves to the Payment Declaration History panel at the bottom of the screen with a status of “Awaiting Commissioning Organisation Approval.” Notification of the declaration is transmitted to the Commissioning Organisation. They will review and, if appropriate, approve the achievement.
