Description

CMS has issued many citations related to the Governing Board and specifically, contract management. This program will also discuss the standards for hospitals accredited by The Joint Commission and DNV which are closely crosswalked to the CMS CoPs.

The governing board of a hospital is responsible for oversight of contracted services and tips to ensure compliance will be discussed.  Hospitals must also have a process to evaluate the contracted services to ensure that the performance indicators are met and that compliance with the provisions contained in the contract regulations and standards with oversight from the Board.

This presentation will cover all the contract requirements for hospitals under the CMS Conditions of Participation and those accredited by the Joint Commission. This program will also cover the standards for hospitals accredited by DNV Healthcare.
