The CNA to LPN Pipeline: Steps to Growing Your Own Nurses Webinar

Wednesday, June 28th
10:30am – 11:30am
Via Zoom
Member Fee: $25
Click here to register

To address our historic nursing shortage, it is critically necessary that facilities invest in strategies to grow your own workforce, including upskilling CNAs to become LPNs.  An MSCA career advancement survey of CNAs at member facilities demonstrated that 90% of incumbent CNAs want to advance their careers.  But the jump from CNA to LPN is not easy, and there are many barriers that can interfere along the way. Join us as we assist member employers with navigating the roadmap between CNA and LPN. 

Target Audience: Administrators, Directors of Nursing, Staff Development Coordinators, Human Resources Staff

Join Us for Part 2: Operationalizing Massachusetts MMQ transition to Medicaid PDPM Case Mix

Zoom Webinar

Wednesday, July 12, 2023

11:00am – 1:00pm

Member Fee: - $60.00
CEUs – 2.0

Click here to register.

Effective July 2023, nursing facilities are tasked with completing the final Management Minutes Questionnaire (MMQ) turnaround, as we simultaneously transition to a MDS based reimbursement system on October 1, 2023. The Medicaid reimbursement system will be based on a Medicaid Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) system and utilize the Minimum Data Set (MDS 3.0) assessment as the acuity measurement tool to determine payment for MassHealth members. 

Beginning in June, MassHealth will begin to import MDS data from CMS to build member records with accurate levels of care in preparation for the October 1st implementation.  How will you operationalize systems to ensure accurate and appropriate reimbursement?

Objectives: 

  1. Learn Medicaid case mix strategies that can be implemented to support accurate reimbursement.
  2. Examine how to operationalize PDPM case mix systems to ensure accurate and appropriate reimbursement.

Presenters:

Maureen McCarthy, President and CEO, Celtic Consulting, LLC
