ADvancing States will host an upcoming webinar on the essential components of critical incident management.
States operating Medicaid waiver programs are required to safeguard consumers against critical incidents such as abuse, neglect, exploitation, and unexplained death. Yet there is no federally defined term for “critical incident.” This webinar will explore what constitutes a critical incident, and the steps your agency should take to protect your citizens from harm and your state from liability. You will learn:
· Common critical incident types and federally required safeguards
· Recent CMS activities and OIG guidance
· Examples of efficient, compliant, and effective practices in place today
Join ADvancing States on Wednesday, November 20 at 2:00 PM ET as Jay Bulot, Vice President, WellSky and Dustin Schmidt, Associate Director of Healthcare, Navigant discuss the essentials of critical incident management.
