OASIS-E Changes Virtual Training

Available On Demand

Presented by: Arlynn Hansell, PT, HCS-D, HCS-H, HCS-O, COS-C, Director of Education, Coding and OASIS Division, for SimiTree

Don’t get left behind. Get an introduction and deep dive into the new and changing OASIS-E items, which take effect January 1, 2023, and their related guidance. Early prep can keep staff from becoming overwhelmed and improve your outcomes, including reducing readmissions, by collecting key data that can help with care planning and outcomes improvement.

This training focuses only on the changes to OASIS-E, including those items that are new to the assessment form. If you’re looking for item-by-item training that covers every OASIS-E item and its guidance, please see our Ultimate Coding & OASIS Training Virtual Series: OASIS Training.

Course Agenda

• Why OASIS-E, Why Now: Get an overview of OASIS-E, including an understanding of why CMS made the move to OASIS-E, and take a detailed look at which items have been removed, which have been revised, and why. The switch to this new version is a huge overhaul and reflects the process of data standardization among postacute providers as required by the IMPACT Act.
• Get a Detailed Look Into the New OASIS-E Items: Understand how to complete new OASIS-E items A2120–A2124 (Reconciled Medication List), B0200 (Hearing), B1000 (Vision), B1300 (Health Literacy), J0510–J0530 (Pain), K0520 (Nutritional Approaches), N0415 (High-Risk Drug Classes), and O0110 (Special Treatments, Procedures, and Programs).
• Take a Deep Dive Into the New Cognitive Items: Walk through how to accurately answer the new cognitive items C0100, C0200–C0500 (BIMS), C1310 (Signs/Symptoms of Delirium from CAM©), D0150–D0160 (Patient Mood Interview), and D0700 (Social Isolation) to ensure appropriate plan of care development and risk adjustment of outcomes.
