FY 24 MDS Changes do more than just change how you complete the MDS. The removal of MDS items, especially Section G, impact so much more that many may not be aware of. Section G and other sections leave gaps in needed data to calculate quality measures and perform case mix adjustments for QM’s and staffing. Will the replacement items impact your QM’s and Five Star Rating? What else will be impacted? This session will analyze the changes and illustrate possible changes SNF providers may see starting October 1 and beyond.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify which of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) item changes have the greatest impact on your facility data.
  • List 2 areas where providers may need an operational strategy to avoid problems.
  • Discuss the CMS transition plan for the FY 24 changes and how providers can experience a smooth transition.
