    NOTE: The FY 2026 preliminary Worksheet S-3 wage data file was updated on June 20, 2024. Prior to this update, the file inadvertently contained cost report data with a begin date before 10/01/2021 and cost report data with a begin date after 10/01/2022. CMS has removed these cost reports and added cost reports that were missing.
