New Regulations on Disclosure of Nursing Quality Indicators

May 4, 2015

10 - 11 a.m.

HANYS and Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA) will co-host this webinar to help hospitals and nursing homes comply with the Nursing Care Quality Protection Act, which requires facilities to collect and disclose, upon request, certain nursing quality indicators. The law took effect March 15, 2010; the recently adopted regulations update previously released DOH guidance that was developed to help hospitals and nursing homes comply.

The new regulations add additional nurse-sensitive outcome measures facilities must collect as part of this requirement, clarify certain definitions in the statute, and specify the timeframe within which facilities must respond to requests for this information. During the webinar, DOH will walk through the regulations, including updates from initial guidance sent to hospitals and nursing homes when the law first went into effect.

Facilities may submit questions in advance of the webinar to Karen Roach, Senior Director, Regulatory Affairs and Rural Health, HANYS, at kroach@hanys.org or Zeynep Sumer-King, Vice President, Regulatory and Professional Affairs, GNYHA, at zsumer@gnyha.org.

HANYS provided resources at the time of the law’s initial effective date, which may be useful for facilities; however, please keep in mind the new regulations update the above-referenced areas of the guidance.
