Pennie 26 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hey All I got this in my email. Does anyone know what it means? Please explain to us if you do know. Has anyone gotten state surveyors in building trigging these Tags & if so which tags is it? Tip of the week: Getting to know Stage II of the QIS During Stage II, state surveyors use the Critical Element Pathways for each triggered care area, triggered by exceeding the threshold, to guide them systematically through a more in-depth review. This, in turn, will determine the associated F-tags for noncompliance. The Critical Element Pathway worksheets and the Unnecessary Drug worksheets indicate which F-tags may be cited for noncompliance. They include the following: CMS-20065 Activities CMS-20066 ADL/ROM CMS-20067 Behavioral/Emotional Problems CMS-20068 Bowel/Bladder/Catheter CMS-20069 Communication/Sensory Problem CMS-20070 Dental CMS-20071 Dialysis CMS-20072 General CMS-20073 Hospice & Palliative Care CMS-20074 Hospitalization or Death CMS-20075 Nutrition/Hydration/Tube Feeding CMS-20076 Pain Management CMS-20077 Physical Restraints CMS-20078 Pressure Ulcers CMS-20079 Psychoactive Medication CMS-20080 Rehabilitation and Community Discharge CMS-20081 Ventilator CMS-20082 Unnecessary Drugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
