Program Description: CMS has updated the surveyor protocols and trainings for hospice under direct pressure from the OIG. These surveys are intended on insuring all hospices are providing the
quality of care that we all want in our industry- but it still may increase the difficulty we find with the survey process to ensure full compliance. These rules are being
applied whether you are surveyed by your state, or by an accrediting organization such as Joint Commission, CHAP or ACHC. This session reviews the changes, but even more
importantly provides insights on how to best prepare for these new interview questions, home visit observations and high risk record review areas. Bonus: Tools will be
provided for your own preparation and success!
