New
Guidance Available on Requirements for Notification of Confirmed and
Suspected COVID-19 Cases Among Residents and Staff in Nursing Homes
CMS issued
a memo and frequently asked questions addressing the new requirement
that nursing homes and long term care facilities report COVID-19
facility data to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
and to residents, their representatives, and their families. This
action, included in the recent Interim Final Rule with Comment Period,
will support surveillance of COVID-19 cases and increase transparency.
