Are there additional plans for DADS to provide in-service training on the OASIS adverse events?
The OASIS education coordinators (OECs) offer “OASIS Assessment and Reporting” classes that teach providers about the Medicare regulations covering the collection and transmission of OASIS data, how to protect the data, and patient rights related to OASIS data. While the OECs do not offer classes covering Adverse Event (Outcome Based Quality Monitoring (OBQM)) Reports, the OECs are available by telephone to answer questions about how to read the reports and how the reports are derived. In addition, CMS has posted the OBQM Manual, which explains the reports in detail, online at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/quality/hhqi/. For additional information, please contact an OASIS education coordinator through the OASIS Help Desk at 512-438-4122.
