Course Curriculum
This five-part webinar series will cover the entire Critical Access Hospital (CAH) Conditions of Participation (CoP) manual from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This program offers an excellent opportunity to educate everyone in your hospital on all the CMS manual sections, especially ones that apply to their department.

Part Four will review the following: radiology, rehabilitation services, visitation policies, medical records, organ procurement, and swing beds.

At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:

  • Explain the informed consent elements required by CMS.
  • Describe the requirements for history and physicals for CAH.
  • List what must be contained in the operative report.
  • Discuss what the CAH must do to comply with the requirements for notification of the organ procurement (OPO) agency when a patient expires.
  • Recall that CMS has many patient rights that are afforded to patients in swing beds.
  • Recall that hospitals must have a visitation policy and patients must be informed.
