This program will cover the CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) hospital Conditions of Participation regulations for Utilization Review. Every hospital that accepts Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement must be in compliance with these standards. Compliance with the UR standards is more important to avoid penalties from the Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs) and other organizations such as the OIG.
Every hospital, including critical access hospitals, needs to attend this important webinar. This program will cover the new changes to the discharge planning standards that became effective November 29, 2019. These were published in the Federal Register on September 30, 2019. This program will discuss the impact act and how it affects hospital discharge planning. It requires a standardized assessment, quality data, and resource data requirements. It requires hospitals to assist patients with post-discharge care such as home health, skilled nursing facilities, long-term care hospitals, and inpatient rehab facilities.
If a CMS surveyor showed up at your hospital tomorrow would you know what to do? Are you sure you are in compliance with the entire grievance requirements by CMS, OCR, and the complaint standards by the Joint Commission or your accreditation organization? Come learn what you need to ensure compliance. Many hospitals are surprised at the number of regulations and the detailed requirements on what they need to do to comply with this problematic standard. This program will talk about a federal law that is in effect now for hospitals and enforced by the Office of Civil Rights requirements under Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act. The hospital must have a grievance procedure and compliance coordinator to investigate any grievances alleging noncompliance with this law including discrimination.
CMS has finalized some significant changes to the hospital conditions of participation (CoPs) that every hospital should know, including critical access hospitals. It was 393 pages long and combined three laws into one. This includes changes to nursing, medical records, infection control, QAPI, patient rights, H&Ps, and restraint and seclusion. It will also require all hospitals to have an antibiotic stewardship program and what the program should include. Also, a great part of this document included things that CMS has found to be problematic in hospitals that are already a requirement in the hospital CoPs.
Did you know there were multiple changes to the hospital nursing chapter of the conditions of participation (CoPs) that went into effect on November 29, 2019, with changes in 2020? Did you know there were over eighteen CMS survey memos of importance to nursing in the recent past? The final changes were in the Hospital Improvement Rule. It will discuss plans of care, staffing, policy changes, when an RN is required in an outpatient department, documentation, supervision, nursing leadership, verbal orders, antibiotic stewardship program requirement, and more.
This program will cover the CMS hospital CoP standards for surgery, anesthesia, and PACU. Every hospital that accepts Medicare and Medicaid must follow these standards and they must be followed for all patients. This program will cover some of the important CMS memos that discuss medication management, IV, and safe opioid use. This will cover the changes to H&P that went into effect on November 29, 2019, and February 21, 2020, and the interpretive guidelines will be published in 2020.
Come attend this program and learn what is required to be in the history and physicals and how to meet compliance with both the CMS hospital conditions of participation and with the Joint Commission standards. CMS has five separate tag numbers. CMS has also issued a deficiency memo so information will be given on how many hospitals received deficiencies in this area. This will also include the standards for critical access hospitals.
Every hospital should be prepared in case a surveyor shows up at your door tomorrow. This webinar will focus on the protocol changes and the swing bed changes that were promulgated by CMS on October 12, 2018, and amended on November 29, 2019. In fact, CMS completely rewrote all of the swing bed regulations. This is a must-attend webinar for any CAHs with swing beds. CMS is also changing all of the CAH tag numbers and the new numbers for the swing beds will be included.
If there is one webinar your hospital should listen to this year it should be this one. If a surveyor showed up at your door tomorrow would your hospital be prepared? You could read the infection control standards and you would be surprised that many things in the worksheet are not discussed in the standards because CMS requires hospitals to follow all standards of care and standards of practice which include evidence-based practice. This is why it is important for the hospital to be in compliance with what is in the 49-page worksheet and to be aware of the proposed changes to the worksheet.
Infection control issues related to COVID-19 will be discussed. This includes several memos from CMS that included the targeted infection control surveys and self-assessment. The CDC also has many resources and recommendations on COVID-19 that will be covered.
Do you know the recent change made in restraints by CMS, effective November 29, 2019? CMS changes the term from LIP (licensed independent practitioner to LP (licensed practitioner). This allows hospitals to allow PAs to write orders for restraints in states where they were considered to be dependent practitioners. The changes will be discussed in detail. This program will discuss the most problematic standards in the restraint section. If a CMS surveyor showed up at your hospital tomorrow would you be prepared? Does your staff understand all 50 pages of the CMS interpretive guidelines?.
