| Impact: | I was wondering if you can answer a question about the purging of QRDA files once we submit them to CMS, can we purge those files after 6 years or is the timeframe longer than 6 years. |

I was wondering if you can answer a question about the purging of QRDA files once we submit them to CMS, can we purge those files after 6 years or is the timeframe longer than 6 years. We just need to make sure our institution has enough space on a server to keep these files. |
