New CMS Regulations • Tampa Bay HMPC
New CMS Conditions of Participation Regulations Impact 17 Medicare & Medicaid Provider & Supplier Types
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized a rule to establish consistent emergency preparedness requirements for health care providers participating in Medicare and Medicaid, increase patient safety during emergencies, and establish a more coordinated response to natural and man-made disasters.
Over the past several years a number of natural and man-made disasters have put the health and safety of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries – and the public at large – at risk. These new requirements will require certain participating providers and suppliers to plan for disasters and coordinate with federal, state tribal, regional, and local emergency preparedness systems to ensure that facilities are adequately prepared to meet the needs of their patients during disasters and emergency situations.
The following are the 17 Healthcare and Service Providers Impacted by the New Regulations
Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) & FQHCs
Long-Term Care Facilities (Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF))
Inpatient Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facilities (PRTFs)
Religious Nonmedical Health Care Institutions (RNHCIs)
Clinics, Rehab. Agencies, & Public Health Agencies as Providers of Outpatient Physical Therapy & Speech Language Pathology ServicesComprehensive
Outpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (CORFs)
End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Facilities
