Description
Quality measures are tools that help us measure or quantify healthcare processes, outcomes, patient perceptions, and systems that are associated with the ability to provide high-quality health care. The QM calculations have undergone significant revisions because of the updates to the MDS effective 10/1/2023. This session will review Quality Measure revisions, applicable definitions, and changes to how each MDS-based measure is calculated with a focus on ways in which facilities can improve quality outcomes with a QAPI driven approach to the data.
Learning Objectives:
- Participants will articulate key MDS data elements that are used to measure quality as it relates to functional outcomes.
- Participant will identify three quality measures that have been revised due to the transition from Section G to Section GG to assess functional status.
- Participants will develop an understanding of how to utilize the CASPER reports to Interpret data and establish benchmarks for quality improvement
