What are Current Covered Retiree Counts?

Qualifying Covered Retiree (QCR) counts are available on the RDS Secure Website after the RDS application is approved by CMS' RDS Center. The retiree counts are calculated from the approved retiree Subsidy Periods. The retiree counts are refreshed on a daily basis and reflect the most recent retiree data derived from the Retiree Response File and Weekly Notification Files. When Reconciliation: Finalize Covered Retirees is marked "Complete," the retiree counts are frozen and are no longer recalculated. For more information, refer to Current Covered Retiree Counts.
