SNF QRP Provider In-Person Training Event

May 7, 2019 @ 8:30 am - May 8, 2019 @ 3:30 pm

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will be hosting a 2-day Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Quality Reporting Program (QRP) in-person ‘Train the Trainer’ event for providers on May 7 and 8, 2019, at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center, 2345 McGee Street, Kansas City, MO 64108. This event will be open to all SNF providers, associations, and organizations.

The primary focus of this ‘Train-the-Trainer’ event will be to provide those responsible for training staff at SNFs with information about:

    • The transition to the Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) which becomes effective on October 1, 2019.
    • A review of SNF QRP changes and updates to the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 Version 1.17.0, which will become effective on October 1, 2019.
    • An overview of the eleven SNF QRP Quality Measures.
    • An interactive session on the use of reports to identify opportunities for process improvement and utilize information contained in reports available via the Certification And Survey Provider Enhanced Reports (CASPER) system to develop quality improvement plans.

A full agenda can be accessed in the downloads section at the bottom of the SNF QRP Training webpage.
