On November 18, 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released revised guidance to nursing home surveyors. Read Consumer Voice’s detailed explanation of these updates. These important revisions address several areas, including:
- Prohibitions on third-party financial guarantees.
- Inappropriate transfers and discharges.
- Unnecessary use of psychotropic medications.
- Misdiagnosing residents with schizophrenia.
Join us on January 22, 2025, for a webinar detailing these and other important updates and how they will affect resident lives. We will be joined by Toby Edelman from The Center for Medicare Advocacy and Eric Carlson from Justice in Aging.
