Compliance Measures for Case Managers

This program will review the compliance issues that most greatly impact your practice such as the 2-midnight rule, the NOTICE Act, HINNs, the important message from Medicare and others. The Joint Commission is now monitoring these issues when they have deemed status from Medicare, so your compliance is critical to a good Joint Commission survey outcome. This program will help you to identify where you may have compliance practice gaps as well as how to fix them.

Why Should You Attend:

As a case manager you may not be up-to-date on all the compliance issues affecting case managers in the acute care setting. While some of them have been around for years, Others are fairly new. Some are directly linked to reimbursement.

By attending this session you will be able to ensure that you understand the compliance issues directly related to the practice of case management and that you have incorporated them into your daily practice. Compliance includes documentation and communication with the patient and family as well. Be sure that your processes are hard-wired and part of your daily routine.
