My role is to make sure your leadership team is comfortable and ready for a State, CMS or OIG Survey; I will offer valuable information, tools and ensure “Best Practice” readiness; not just during the 90-day Survey window. Survey readiness is an ongoing process; a new set of eyes will pick up trends and make immediate recommendations, ensuring regulatory compliance is maintained throughout the entire Center.

As my Client, within (14) fourteen business days after the Survey, you will receive a comprehensive report regarding all findings and recommendations discovered during the Mock Survey. During the Survey days, the Center needs to provide me one or more Team members who has access to Medical Records, Logs, Provider and Staff files.
