MDS 3.0 Distance Learning Series, May – November, 2010

Target Audience: -- Administrator -- MDS Coordinator -- Director of Nursing  -- Director of Social Services   -- Director of Activities  -- Director of Rehabilitation Services   -- Admissions Staff

OVERVIEW   (click for printable Overview document)  

In keeping with the success of their previous highly-rated distance learning education offerings, AOPHA and Plante & Moran have teamed with OKAHSA to offer a series of affordable distance learning educational sessions about the process of completing the Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 – the new tool beginning October 1, 2010. The MDS drives everything in long-term care (survey, quality indicators/quality measures, data for Nursing Home Compare, reimbursement) and with the new process, accuracy of the MDS will be a challenge for the interdisciplinary team. We will break down the MDS 3.0 section by section.

Successful surveys demand accurate MDSs. To provide the best information to consumers the facility must generate accurate MDSs. Rightful reimbursement for Medicare and Medicaid requires an accurate MDS. Each of these 11, 90 minute sessions is designed to build on one another and fit the needs of all disciplines involved in the assessment process. Each session will have time for questions and answers.  The team can hear and see the same information at the same time via audio format; no travel expenses for the facility and continuing education certificates will be sent to your door.

SPEAKER:  Jane Belt, MS, RN, RAC-MT, Consulting Manager, Plante & Moran, PLLC, Columbus
