CMS and CDC to Answer Visitation Questions on Thursday Webinar

On March 24, 2021 by Jonathan Lips

As providers across the country work to absorb and implement updated visitation guidance, many questions are rising to the surface. To address these trending questions, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will hold a National Nursing Home Stakeholder Call this Thursday, March 25, from 3 – 4 p.m. CT.

Participants on the call will hear from a Nursing Home Administrator currently implementing the new guidance.

While this event is targeted to nursing homes, assisted living providers may find it useful as well, since the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has adopted the CMS guidance for application in assisted living.

Providers wishing to attend should register in advance for this Zoom call. Conference lines are limited, so CMS highly encourages you to join via audio webcast, either on your computer or smartphone web browser.

LeadingAge Minnesota will incorporate learnings from this call, as well as from MDH’s Wednesday COVID-19 call for long-term care, into a Frequently Asked Questions resource for our members.
