1 National Overview of CMS RoP & Quality Holly Harmon, RN, MBA, LNHA, FACHCA May 3, 2018
2 It s a Time of Change..
3 Reform of Requirements of Participation (RoP) - 3-Phase Implementation Phase 1: Upon the effective date of the final rule (Nov 28, 2016) Phase 2: 1 year following the effective date of the final rule (Nov 28, 2017) Phase 3: 3 years following the effective date of the final rule (Nov 28, 2019)
4 No Time for Just Sittin on the Dock of the Bay Major Phase 2 requirements with new interpretive guidance for Phases 1 and 2 New survey process with new survey forms and investigative pathways/critical element pathways Not to mention Delivery and payment system reforms rooted in person-centered care, coordination across care settings, and cross-sector accountability for outcomes This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA
5 What does this mean for me? A time of transition within your centers (and for surveyors too) A time to reflect, self-assess, and prioritize your efforts A marathon, not a sprint
6 Enforcement Delays CMS suspended the use of Remedies (CMPs, denial of payment, discretionary termination) for several Phase 2 requirements for 18 months CMS froze Survey Component of Five Star for 12 months for any survey STARTED after Nov 28 th, 2017 Updated survey component in February 2018 using only last two cycles No freeze on staffing or quality measures component 6
7 Survey Score in Five Star Cycle 1 Most recent standard survey + All complaint surveys in prior (1-12 months) Weighting Early Current % 60% Cycle 2 Prior standard survey + All complaint surveys in prior (13-24 months) 33% 40% Cycle 3 Prior to cycle 2 standard survey + All complaint surveys in prior (25-36 months) 12.5% 0%
8 Coming Through the Fog: Managing for a Successful Survey
9 Mindset Model CURRENT RESULTS Key: Understand the Intent & Purpose BEHAVIORS MINDSET The Arbinger Institute: Mindset Model
10 The First & Last Law of Improvement Every system is perfectly designed to achieve exactly the results it gets.
11 New Survey Process Modeled after QIS process with elements of traditional survey Structure / Autonomy Relies on Critical Element Pathways/Investigative Pathways Computer- and software-based Updated with the reformed RoPs Emphasizes observation of care and resident interviews starting on day 1 of the survey
12 Managing the Survey Process Use Pathways to prepare staff and residents Self-check on compliance Practice interviews Make sure staff, residents, and families are aware of changes you have made based on the new or revised requirements Use the regulation to support your discussions with surveyors keep a copy handy and accessible!
13 Questions to Management Team
14 Questions about New Survey process Do we have the information/documents needed to give surveyors within 1 and 4 hours of entry? How are we preparing staff to be observed providing care? How are we preparing staff to be interviewed about how they do? Have we reviewed the CEPs the surveyors will use and updated our survey preparation to be c/w the CEPs? Do the administrators have a copy of the regulations, IGs and CEPs handy to ask surveyors for clarification during the survey?
15 Questions for Administrator
16 Administrator Questions Do we have all required new Policy & Procedures? Do we have a QAPI plan? Have we updated the QA committee membership? Do our policies require reporting any allegation of abuse or neglect within 2 hours to the State?
17 Administrator Questions Have we completed the Facility Assessment? Can we show how the FA informed Staffing QAPI plan Infection Control Plan Note: Staffing decisions must be driven by the facility assessment and come from the facility not from organization central office In-service trainings & staff competencies Admission decisions Emergency Preparedness & Plan Food services
18 Questions for Director of Nursing
19 Director of Nursing Have we completed necessary plans Infection Prevention Control Plan Have we named an infection preventionist (due Nov 2019) Do we have antibiotic stewardship program?
20 Director of Nursing Are the consulting pharmacist and medical director working on Drug Regimen Review How are we making sure PRN orders have correct documentation What are the plans for meeting the new behavioral health requirements? How are we checking that the PASARR has level 2 if required?
21 Questions for Legal
22 Legal Questions How are we making sure the resident representative is identified and staff are aware of the resident representative designation? Have we updated our admission agreement to be consistent with all the new resident rights? How are we informing residents and their representative of their new rights? Are we working on a compliance and ethics plan and training for staff? Have we established a grievance process and how are we training staff on the grievance process?
23 Questions for Food Service Management
24 Food Service Manager How are we meeting resident s food preferences and needs (e.g. Kosher meals)? Are we checking that new hires meet the new qualifications for dietician and food manager?
25 Questions for Building Operations
26 Maintenance Questions Are we working to install call system that will relay the call directly to a staff member or to a centralized staff work area from each resident s bedside? Do we have a process for completing all the checks on bed frames, mattresses, bed rails and other equipment that you can show surveyors? Do we have any plans for renovations that trigger 2 person per room maximum? NOTE: If you change provider number or build a new building, each room must have its own bathroom.
27 Questions for Care Plan Coordinator
28 Care Plan Coordinator How are we completing a baseline care plan within 48 hours? How to we share it with the resident? Are we revamping our care plans to have Measureable goals and timelines to achieve Include dietary and CNA as part of the IDT Are our goals setting us up for deficiencies?
29 Care Plan Coordinator Have we developed a template for a discharge plan? Do we have a plan to share it with the resident? For residents who are transferred or discharged, how are we Getting physician documentation for the reason for transfer/discharge? Making sure required information accompanies the resident?
30 Questions for Human Resources
31 Human Resources Have we identified core competencies staff need to have? Can we show how we used FA to determine core competencies? How are we assessing staff competencies? Have we checked/updated job positions to be c/w the new requirements for: Social Worker Dietician Director of Food and Nutrition Services (if not dietician on staff/contracted)
32 Raindrops Keep Fallin on My Head: Issues and Trends in the New Survey Process
33 Key Theme: Person-Centered Care Greater involvement of person and their representative Resident involvement/preferences addressed in many F-tags Supervision and choices E.g. smoking Staffing and training Staff competencies addressed in many F-tags Facilitating resident involvement and preferences Care planning process Expanded staff roles and engagement of entire IDT (CNA, food & nutrition) Person-centered approaches; e.g. language and manner resident can understand Care plan interventions and revisions Required notifications Care plan changes Transfer and discharge
34 Key Theme: Aligning Resources with Residents Making informed admissions decisions Do you have the staffing, competencies, resources? Using Facility Assessment to make informed decisions Staffing and competencies linked to residents needs Preparing for emergencies EP requirements and risk assessment
35 Key Theme: Systems Improvement/QAPI Addressing adverse events (medication related, infection related, care practice related) Transitions of care Prioritization of high-risk, high-volume, problem-prone areas and systemic concerns E.g. handwashing and hand hygiene, glucometer cleaning Role of QAA committee Identifying and monitoring issues Good faith efforts
36 Key Theme: Continuous Monitoring and Timely Action Data-driven approaches to monitoring and feedback Medication prescribing practices and systems E.g. unnecessary medications Infection control and antibiotic stewardship E.g. trending and analysis of infections Addressing staff competencies and training

43 We all Live in a Yellow Submarine Early look: Many of the top tags nationally remain the same If you have quality problems, surveyors will look at: Staffing and training sufficient, competent QA and PI was it identified by the facility? Interview-driven Does everyone on the team know and understand the residents care needs consistent with their roles Staff responses to staffing Does the resident have a voice Resident and Resident Council interviews 43

Variation across states and regions IJ citations and inappropriate stacking of tags Average # of deficiencies per survey Scope and severity of deficiencies Guidance and interpretations that are unclear or incorrect Appropriate use of CMPs based on CMP Tool This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-NC-ND 44
45 Other Areas of Concern Admission, Transfer, Discharge (e.g. proper notices) Abuse & Neglect Elopement
46 Transfer and Discharge Emphasis on discharge planning tied to resident goals If facility-initiated transfer or discharge, must issue appropriate notices All hospital transfers even scheduled Any transfer/discharge that resident/family did not initiate, even if they agree Any transfer/discharge that the resident objects to 46
47 Transfer and Discharge Notice Updates Must update with new information, and if significant (e.g., new location), clock resets Ombudsman to be copied on all transfer and discharge notices Discharge notice At time issued to resident Hospital Transfer notice As soon as practicable; could be a monthly list Readmission from Hospital If unable to readmit, must issue a Discharge Notice Reason must be based on status at time of readmission to the facility, not at time of hospital transfer 47
48 Transfer and Discharge Bed Hold The failure to pay for a bed hold or exhausted bed hold days cannot be treated as a resident-initiated discharge Must readmit to first available bed Appeal Pending Cannot discharge until hearing complete, unless there is evidence that the resident s return would endanger the health or safety of the resident or other individuals in the facility 48
49 CMS Initiative on Transfer & Discharge S&C (December 22, 2017) Evaluation of State Agencies Review of intake and triage practices for discharge complaints CMS will review all deficiencies related to facility-initiated discharges State Agencies must transfer any case involving facility-initiated transfer violation to the CMS RO if: Resident placed in questionable or unsafe setting Resident remains hospitalized Where there is a pattern RO will determine whether enforcement action indicated 49
50 CMS FOSS Pilot (Admin Info: NH) Areas of Focus Abuse & Neglect Admission/Transfer/Discharge Dementia Care Services Phase 1 (January April 2018) Resource and Support Surveys: Federal surveyors will accompany state surveyors on annual recertification or complaint surveys and provide instruction and guidance 50
51 CMS FOSS Pilot Phase 2 (May December 2018) Focused Comparative Surveys (i.e., look behind surveys ) Conducted w/in 30 working days of state survey end dates; Surveyors will independently investigate concerns Non-compliance identified that do not constitute SQC (or lower) will not be cited no 2567 issued (must still correct) 2567 will be issued for deficiencies at the IJ, Harm or SQC level Subsequent years RO to identify concerns unique to the region based on QMs, MDS, and QCOR data Determined in September for the coming FY 51
52 Abuse and Neglect 10 Separate Tags (Used to be 4) F600 Abuse & Neglect F602 Exploitation/Misappropriation F603 Involuntary Seclusion F604 - Physical Restraints F605 Chemical Restraints F606 Not Employ/engage staff with Adverse actions on license/certification F607 Development and implementation of policies and procedures F608 Reporting Reasonable suspicion of a crime to law enforcement F609 Reporting of Alleged violations to the state agency F610 Investigate/Prevent/Correct alleged violations
53 Facility Responsibility Determination of Findings and Potential to Foresee Abuse It has been reported that some facilities have identified that they are in compliance with F600- Free from Abuse and Neglect because that they could not foresee that abuse would occur and they have done everything to prevent abuse, such as conducted screening of potential employees, assessed residents for behavioral symptoms, monitored visitors, provided training on abuse prevention, suspended or terminated employment of the perpetrator, developed and implemented policies and procedures to prohibit abuse, and met reporting requirements. However, this interpretation would not be consistent with the regulation, which states that the resident has the right to be free from verbal, sexual, physical, and mental abuse Therefore, if the survey team has investigated and collected evidence that abuse has occurred, it is appropriate for the survey team to cite the current or past noncompliance at F600-Free from Abuse and Neglect. 53
54 Abuse and Neglect Willful defined as individual acted deliberately Categories of abuse defined in Appendix PP Staff-resident Resident-resident Visitor-resident Sexual Abuse Capacity to consent Photos/Social Media abuse and privacy
55 Abuse and Neglect Neglect - Any failure to provide what is necessary to avoid harm, pain, distress has potential to be neglect Inability to meet needs due to lack of staff or inadequate training Too busy to respond to call lights Untrained agency staff The cumulative effect of different individual failures in the provision of care and services by staff leads to an environment that promotes neglect Involuntary seclusion Secured Areas Appropriate documentation Isolation Procedures
56 Abuse and Neglect Physical restraints: Position change alarms to monitor a resident - if resident is afraid to move to avoid setting off the alarm Reporting Changes All abuse allegations must be reported to State Agency immediately but not later than 2 hours. All reportable incidents involving serious bodily injury must be reported immediately but not later than 2 hours (e.g., an injury of unknown source with serious injury) All other allegations that do not involve abuse or serious bodily injury must be reported immediately but not later than 24 hours.
57 Elopement AHCA Analysis: 85 elopement citations that received a G or higher deficiency Key Takeaways: Facility failed to do what they said they would do in P&P or Care Plan related to individuals elopement risk Failed to assess for elopement risk Door alarm or wander guard ignored or turned off, or individual in an unsecured environment without close supervision Visitors or other allowed individual to leave through a secure door Inconsistency in scope and severity assignment 57
58 Elopement Assess risk and revaluate Risk Assessment Tools High risk residents need special supervision, environment, and alerts Prior history, asking about going home and wandering behavior are high especially high risk 58
59 Elopement Alarms/monitors on residents Use of labeling on residents Routine rounding to assure residents in place Close 1:1 supervision when they leave a secure environment Frequent drilling for silver alert when resident is missing 59
