Join us for this workshop presented by subject matter experts in healthcare accreditation and regulatory compliance. This program presents an overview of the accreditation and regulatory processes, including survey preparation and management, responding to findings and adverse decisions, as well as ongoing readiness ideas and solutions. It includes a variety of topics related to tracer methodology, document management, and strategies for establishing a continuous compliance program for hospital and ambulatory care settings.

Event Description

This fast-paced two-day course takes you through the basics of the peri-survey process. The onsite survey is a big part of the Joint Commission and CMS programs, but there are a ton of logistics in coordinating an accreditation/regulatory program. Learn what resources are available, tips and hints on how to stay on top of things, as well as learn what are the key skills necessary to be successful at maintaining your organization’s accreditation and regulatory program.
