Join DPH and Mass Senior Care for a webinar on
Successfully Navigating the Informal Dispute Resolution Process (IDR),
and the Independent Informal Dispute Process (IIDR)
Tuesday, November 19, 2024
1:00 pm – 3:00 pm
VIRTUAL
Seminar Description:
The informal dispute process (IDR) and the independent informal dispute process (IIDR) are the only recourse providers have to dispute citations of federal deficiencies. Being successful in the IDR and the IIDR can have a multi-year impact on a provider’s future fines and sanctions, 5-Star rating, and relationships with insurance companies.
Many providers are still unclear as to the process for the IDR and IIDR including what can be disputed, what the process is to dispute citations and how to do this effectively. This seminar will include an overview of the IDR and IIDR process as well as tips to develop IDR and IIDRs to effectively dispute deficiency citations.
At the conclusion of the program, participants will be able to:
1.Understand the regulatory framework for the IDR and IIDR process.
2.Understand the Massachusetts IDR and IIDR process.
3.Identify key components of preparing a complete organized case for review.
