Hospitals and health systems must be prepared from top to bottom for a survey by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the state survey agency, The Joint Commission or Det Norske Veritas at any day or time. These surveys can occur for several reasons, including recertification, validation of deemed status or critical access, or complaint, abuse, EMTALA or other self-reported event investigations. Proper preparation can help hospitals avoid and minimize adverse findings discovered during a governmental or accrediting organization survey. This online seminar will help hospitals prepare and manage these unannounced surveys.
