CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwire - February 21, 2011) - Compass Clinical Consulting and the Colorado Hospital Association are collaborating to present "CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) Bootcamp: Achieving Compliance, Avoiding Chaos" for hospital leaders on February 22-23, 2011, at the Cable Center on the University of Denver Campus, located at 2000 Buchtel Boulevard, Denver, CO 80210.
A DANGEROUS JUGGLING ACT
Today's hospitals must juggle the evolving standards of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to achieve regulatory compliance, ensure compensation, and provide quality patient care. Failure to do so leads to immediate and severe consequences for the hospitals and communities they serve.
UNIQUE REQUIREMENTS AND SURVEY PROCESS OF CMS
Led by seasoned consultant and healthcare leader Amanda S. Brown, RN, BSN, MSM, CIC, this two-day workshop will address the unique requirements and survey process of CMS, and equip participants with strategies for achieving compliance in their own hospitals.
SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE NEEDED TO NAVIGATE CMS CONDITIONS
The purpose of "CMS Bootcamp: Achieving Compliance, Avoiding Chaos" is to provide hospital quality and nursing directors with the specific skills and knowledge needed to navigate CMS Conditions of Participation.
Following participation in this education opportunity, attendees will be able to:
-
Differentiate between the standards and survey processes of The Joint Commission and CMS
-
Identify hot-button standards and issues for 2011
-
Apply strategies for meeting departmental and global Conditions of Participation within their own hospital settings
