Pharmacy & Medication Standards
The New CMS CoPs
The New CMS CoPs
Speaker: Sue Dill Calloway, RN, MSN, JD Code: T1702222
Duration: 120 min. Format: On-Demand
Medication errors are the largest class of medical errors in healthcare today and the most common cause of unnecessary readmissions. CMS said that drug-related adverse outcomes occur in 1.9 million inpatient stays, almost 5% of all admissions. Hospitals that spend more resources on medication issues generally demonstrate lower rates of adverse events.
This presentation will review the proposed changes under the Hospital Improvement Act, including policies and procedures for timing of medication and related staff training. Learn how to prevent medication errors and change standards of practice to reduce readmissions.
