Webinar: Will PBJ erase your star rating?

Your PBJ data is about to change your Five-Star rating. Is your organization ready?

In a recent letter, CMS confirmed that, beginning in April 2018, it will use PBJ (Payroll-Based Journal) data to calculate staffing measures of the nursing home quality rating system. This means that staffing measures displayed on the Nursing Home Compare website, as well as staffing ratings used in the Five-Star rating system, will be based on the PBJ data you submit, rather than on self-reported data collected at the time of survey.

This webinar event was one of our most popular ever, with over 2,000 people registered. If you missed it, we’re now providing it in an on-demand format so you can learn how the new PBJ requirements will affect your quality ratings. The webinar also covers why your MDS assessments are more important than ever, as well as common PBJ issues raised in PBJ audits, and more. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from industry experts about the next phase of PBJ requirements.
