NJDOH Overview: CMS Risk-Based Survey
August 19, 2026 | 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Beginning September 8, 2026, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will implement the nursing home risk-based survey process nationally. New Jersey was fortunate to have been part of CMS’ pilot for risk-based surveys. Join us on Aug. 19 at 10 am for a webinar with Assistant Commissioner Kimberly Hansen of the New Jersey Department of Health who will share lessons learned from the pilot, important aspects of the risk-based survey implementation and how facilities that are not currently eligible to participate can become eligible.
