This program will cover the CMS Hospital CoP standards for surgery, anesthesia, and PACU, and the current interpretive guidelines regarding pre and post-anesthesia evaluations, anesthesia services, and moderate and deep sedation. Our expert will discuss types of deficiencies hospitals receive in the areas of informed consent, H&Ps, safe opioid use, safe injection practices, compounding, and beyond use dates.
CMS made four revisions on the anesthesia standards. Ensure your hospital’s policies and procedures reflect the required surgery and anesthesia standards with our program!
