It will also cover a new law under the OCR Section 1557 which requires the hospital to have a new process for handling discrimination complaints.

Topic Background:
CMS issued their first memo summarizing noncompliance and grievances were a top problematic standard. A recent report by CMS found 902 hospitals out of compliance! Don’t let this happen to your hospital. Come learn what you need to ensure compliance. Many hospitals are surprised at the number of regulations and the detailed requirements to comply with this problematic standard.
Most every hospital in the US that accepts Medicare or Medicaid reimbursement must be in compliance with the CMS Conditions of Participation (CoPs).
Note: That Critical Access Hospitals (CAH) have a separate set of hospital CoPs and there is no corresponding restraint standard and the only mention of restraints is in the swing bed section. However, CAH are expected to have some system of grievance and complaint resolution. Therefore, many CAH adopt most of the requirements. This program will be helpful in determining suggested practices for policy implementation. CAH hospitals that are in systems should know the differences in the two sets of CoPs and may find the program of interest for that reason.
