Industry Notes:

Examine These New Changes To the HIS Manual

You can take a look at the updated Hospice Item Set Manual before you listen to CMS’s June 17 training session covering it. 

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has posted V1.02 of the HIS Manual, which “provides clarifications of HIS item definitions and expectations for use,” CMS notes on its HIS website. The agency has also posted a change table outlining the revisions from the old V1.01 to the new V1.02 manual.

Links to the manual, change table, and registration for the June 17 training session are at www.cms.gov/Medicare/Quality-Initiatives-Patient-Assessment-Instruments/Hospice-Quality-Reporting/Hospice-Item-Set-HIS.html.
