Topic Background:
CMS made significant changes to IV medication administration, blood transfusion, safe injection practices, compounding, beyond use date (BUD) and implemented safe opioid standards. Hospitals are still struggling how to comply with these complicated standards.
There are many changes in the past to this section include timing of medications, standing orders, soft wrist restraints and restraint reporting, plan of care, verbal orders, blood transfusions, IV medication, compounding, BUD, safe injection practices, self-administration of medications and drug orders. There were many changes to the final interpretive guidelines that went into effect the past two years. CMS has issued the final worksheets on QAPI, in nursing.
Recently, there has been increased scrutiny and surveillance to make sure that all hospitals are in compliance with the hospital CoPs. Don’t be caught off guard and put your hospital’s reimbursement at risk.
Every hospital that accepts Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement must follow the CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) Conditions of Participation (CoPs) and it must be followed for all patients. This program will cover the nursing services section in the hospital CoP manual. Facilities accredited by the Joint Commission, Health Care Facility Accreditation Program, CIHQ, and DNV Healthcare must also follow these regulations.
Note: CMS has a separate CoP for critical access hospitals (CAHs). Although there are now many similar standards in the nursing services section it is important to note that CMS has a separate manual for CAHs and differences do exist. Major differences are discussed throughout the program.
