12 A little more on Governing Board The Governing Board must ensure that the program reflects the complexity of the hospital s organization and services; involves all hospital departments and services (including those services furnished under contract or arrangement); and focuses on DATA indicators related to improved health outcomes and the prevention and reduction of medical errors. The hospital must develop, implement and maintain an effective, ongoing, hospital-wide, data-driven quality assessment and performance improvement (QAPI)program. The process must be proactive Focused on care to patients Focused on the performance of the hospital as an organization Focused on the impact of treatment furnished by hospital on the health status of patients EMPHASIS ON PATIENT SAFETY AND ACCOUNTABILITY The hospital must maintain and demonstrate evidence of it s QAPI program for review by Accrediting Body and CMS 12

32 Questions at this Point 32
33 Certification verses Accreditation 33
34 Focus of this Section Basics of a CMS Survey Basics of EMTALA 34
35 CMS CMS Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (Formerly HCFA) Health Care Financing Administration Brother/sister Agency in the Department of Health and Human CMS authority comes from federal law they are regulatory in focus A facility can t participate in the Medicare & Medicaid programs (meaning bill for services) unless CMS certifies the facility 35
36 Indian Health System What does this have to do with us Just like everyone else, facilities within the Indian Health System must be certified by CMS to participate in Medicare & Medicaid 36
37 Certification for Medicare Participation CMS Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Only CMS can certify a facility for Medicare Participation CMS certification to participate in Medicare means the facility is now eligible to receive payment for services to Medicare beneficiaries In order to receive Medicaid a facility must meet the requirements to participate in Medicare 37
38 Certification for Medicare Participation In order to participate in Medicare, a facility must meet all Federal Requirements Civil Rights: Attestation Enrollment: Form CMS-855 Conditions of Participation (CoP): Survey Conditions of Participation (CoPs) are what CMS expects a facility, meaning its leaders and staff, to do to protect the health and safety of Medicare beneficiaries 38
39 Accreditation CMS certifies facilities for participation in Medicare CMS does not accredit facilities Accrediting Organizations accredit facilities Accreditation is a business decision for private sector facilities An IHS Policy for Federal facilities Accreditation Accreditation with deemed status Deemed status constitutes a determination that the entire facility meets or exceeds the CoPs 39
40 Accrediting Organizations For Hospitals and Critical Access Hospitals CMS has approved three (3) Accrediting Organizations The Joint Commission - TJC Det Norske Veritas Health Care DNVHC also called DNV American Osteopathic Association - AOA 40
41 Accredited & Deemed are Different A facility can choose to be Accredited Meaning the facility is in compliance with the Accreditation Standards of the Accrediting Organization Example AAAHC s Accreditation of an Ambulatory Clinic A facility can choose to be Accredited with deemed status Meaning CMS has deemed that the Accrediting Organization s determination of compliance with Accreditation Standards is accepted by CMS as meeting the Conditions of Participation Example The Joint Commission Accreditation s of a Hospital 41
42 Removal of Deemed Status If CMS determines that an accredited with deemed status facility is out of compliance with a CoP CMS will remove deemed status The facility remains accredited and subject to the requirements of the Accrediting Organization However deemed status has been removed and the facility is subject to direct CMS authority 42
43 Return of Deemed Status Deemed status will not be returned until an onsite survey determines that the CoPs are in compliance 43
44 Example CMS Surveys a facility accredited with deemed status by The Joint Commission CMS Finding not in compliance with Conditions of Participation CMS removes deemed status CMS requires a corrective action plan 44
45 Example (cont.) The accrediting organization The Joint Commission is notified that deemed status has been removed The Joint Commission surveys the facility The facility is still accredited by The Joint Commission The Joint Commission finds non-compliance with their standards The Joint Commission requires a report from the facility with evidence of standards compliance 45
46 Example (cont.) The facility has two requirements Plan of Correction for CMS Evidence of Standards Compliance and Measure of Success for The Joint Commission 46
47 Example (cont.) If all goes well The facility implements a successful Plan of Correction CMS resurveys the facility and finds it is now in compliance with the Conditions of Participation CMS certifies the facility for participation in the Medicare & Medicaid programs 47
48 Example (cont.) If all goes well The Joint Commission accepts the facilities Evidence of Standards Compliance and Measure of Success The Joint Commission resurveys the facility and finds they meet the Accreditation Standards Deemed status is returned after CMS Certification 48
49 Termination CMS termination does not close a facility CMS termination terminates the Medicare & Medicaid provider agreements, thus stopping all Medicare & Medicaid payment 49
50 Why is a Facility Terminated from the It does not go well Medicare Program? A facility does not implement an effective Plan of Correction demonstrating compliance with Conditions of Participation CMS will give a facility more then one opportunity to demonstrate compliance CMS will write a Plan of Correction for a facility sounds nice you don t want this 50
51 Why is a Facility Terminated from the Medicare Program? (cont.) It does not go well A facility refuses to allow a CMS survey A facility interferes with a CMS survey A facility refuses to provide requested information A facility refuses to allow photocopying 51
52 How does a Facility Get a CMS Survey? The facility is not accredited therefore CMS conducts regular, though not frequent, surveys Every 4 6 years or they can come back anytime 52
53 How does a Facility Get a CMS Survey? (cont.) A facility is Accredited with deemed status and CMS decides to do a validation survey They are validating the findings of the Accrediting Organization Random selection 53
54 How does a Facility Get a CMS Survey (cont.) A Complaint Allegation is received by CMS A complaint is an allegation of noncompliance with Federal requirements An allegation is an assertion of improper care or treatment that could result in the citation of a CMS deficiency A substantial allegation of noncompliance is a complaint that if substantiated would affect the health & safety of individuals & raise doubts as to the facility s compliance with CoPs 54
55 How does a Facility Get a CMS Survey? (cont.) An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) Noncompliance has caused or is likely to cause serious injury, harm, impairment, or death Restraint/seclusion death report Emergency Medical Treatment & Active Labor Act (EMTALA) 55
56 EMTALA Required by Law Compliance with Policies and Procedures Sign Posting Emergency Room Log Appropriate Medical screening Exam Stabilizing Treatment Appropriate Transfer 56
57 Example OB patient Referred to an OB/GYN Physician for prenatal care Patient came to a facility s Emergency Room in Early Labor Consultation with the patient s OB/GYN Physician Physician asked that the patient be transferred to the local hospital 57
58 Example (cont.) Local Hospital filed an EMTALA violation complaint with CMS The Local Hospital stated that the physician was not acting on behalf of the hospital the physician was not on call for the Local Hospital The facility should have contacted the hospital to accept the transfer 58
59 Example (cont.) This specific IHS facility has had two CMS EMTALA Surveys Each Survey finds something new requiring a Plan of Correction 59
