As providers approach the imminent October 1 implementation of the SNF PPS transition from the RUG-IV to PDPM, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) continues to issue last-minute updates including corrections to policies, software, billing guidance, and educational resources. During this 90- minute live webinar, the presenters will discuss key resources that CMS has updated recently that providers should pay attention to. In addition, the presentation will cover several frequently asked questions associated with the payment model transition that members have submitted to the pdpm@ahca.org helpdesk. After the presentation, webinar participants will also have the opportunity to submit questions to be responded to during the webinar. AHCA will also post an on-demand recording of the live webinar as well as written Q&A responses to all questions submitted shortly after the live webinar.

The matters of consent, capacity and resident education will be addressed. Suggested approaches will be offered for care planning for issues involving suspected sexual abuse, cases of unwanted sexual contact or contact in circumstances where one or both parties lack capacity to consent.
