Joint Commission announces new tool to help with accreditation, CMS compliance
Editor's Note
The Joint Commission on November 29 announced a new software tool, “Tracers with AMPTM plus CMS,” to help hospitals and critical access hospitals manage their Joint Commission accreditation and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) compliance efforts.
The tool is a web-based platform that stores a hospital’s tracer data and allows it to trend its compliance with Joint Commission and CMS standards over time.
It also will help an organization manage a plan of correction if it receives a CMS violation.
