The
2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires a compliance program in each nursing
home by the end of 2013 and a quality assurance and performance improvement
(QAPI) program soon after. How? What?
Upstairs
Solutions, a 2012 LeadingAge Premier Sponsor, recently released the white
paper, "Developing
an Effective Quality Assurance Program: Turning minimum requirements into a
comprehensive strategy".
According
to Cheryl Phillips, senior vice president for advocacy at LeadingAge, who is
quoted in the white paper, “Our traditional QA approach…didn’t engage the
culture of the organization in using that information in forward-thinking, true
process improvement. QAPI is going to be a vehicle to do that.”
You
can download a copy of the white paper to find out more.
