Nursing Home Final Rule: What You Need to Know
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has issued the long-awaited Nursing Home Requirements of Participation Final Rule. The changes are significant and cover every aspect of service and care.
Although there is as yet no 'Guidance to Surveyor' language, which will help greatly in our understanding of details, we have provided 2 summaries for you.
- The first is a “short” 12-page tool that hits the topic areas and brief CMS language.
- The second is a much more lengthy resource that breaks out each section with key points, changes to the regulation, and what you need to do.
We will also be sharing more resources in the coming months. For more information, please contact Evvie Munley at emunley@leadingage.org.
