Work with nursing homes and stakeholders to promote quality improvement on the clinical measures. The QIO shall, if requested, provide assistance to nursing homes on clinical measures as necessary and/or appropriate.\nii. Set statewide targets for (at a minimum) high-risk pressure ulcers and physical restraints. The QIO shall document the targets set by submitting them via the STAR interactive website, which will then transmit this information via the appropriate SDPS application according to Section F \u2013 QIO Schedule of Deliverables.\niii. Assist nursing homes throughout the state/jurisdiction to help them set targets at least annually for (at a minimum) pressure ulcers among high-risk residents and physical restraints. The QIO shall document the targets set by assisting the nursing homes in submitting this information via the STAR interactive website, which will then transmit this information via the appropriate SDPS application according to Section F \u2013 QIO Schedule of Deliverables. Nursing homes participating with the QIO as identified participants are expected to set targets at least annually for high risk pressure ulcers and physical restraints. The Nursing Home QIOSC will make available an interactive website that allows the QIO and nursing homes to set targets as well as providing resources for setting targets. Nursing homes may set any target (including below, above, or at the nursing home\u2019s current rate) for the publicly reported quality measures.\niv. (Optionally) Assist a subset of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction (can overlap in whole or in part with the identified participant group) to document their processes of care for 50% of new admissions (up to a maximum of 25 admissions per month) related to: \u2022 skin inspection and pressure ulcer risk assessment; \u2022 depression screening and treatment; \u2022 evaluation of the necessity for and alternatives to the use of physical restraints; and \u2022 pain assessment and treatment. The minimum numbers of nursing homes that must transmit process improvement data in order for the QIO to receive credit for this optional activity are defined by the number of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction: Number of Nursing Homes in State/Jurisdiction Minimum Number of Nursing Homes Transmitting Process of Care Data for QIO To Receive Credit up to 30 5 31\u2013150 8 151\u2013300 15 301\u2013500 25 more than 500 40 This information shall be transmitted monthly for at least 10 (not necessarily consecutive) months between January 2006 and September 2007 to the QIO Clinical Data Warehouse. The data transmitted to the QIO Clinical Data Warehouse will be available only to the QIO community. These data will be collected using the Nursing Home Improvement Feedback Tool (NHIFT) or a private tool that conforms to the same data specifications. NHIFT will be made available free of cost to all nursing homes beginning in October 2005. Training for the QIOs will begin in October 2005. Monthly reporting will begin in January 2006.\nb) With the IPGs (IPG1 and IPG2), the QIO shall help its identified participants:\ni. (IPG1 only) Significantly improve the clinical quality of the care provided to their nursing home residents in the areas of pressure ulcers among high-risk residents, physical restraints, management of depressive symptoms, and management of pain. (IPG2 only) Significantly improve the clinical quality of the care provided to their nursing home residents in the areas of physical restraints and pressure ulcers among high risk residents.\nii. (IPG1 and IPG2) Collect and monitor resident and staff experience of care/satisfaction. Resident and staff experience of care/ satisfaction surveys must be conducted at least annually. Resident experience of care shall be collected only for persons capable of responding on their own behalf. The Nursing Home QIOSC will provide a list of acceptable resident and staff experience of care/satisfaction tools. For the QIO to successfully meet this requirement, at least 90% of all identified participants must complete three annual resident and staff surveys during the course of the SOW. The QIO shall submit each nursing home\u2019s baseline, interim, and final remeasurement rates as well as indicate which tool the nursing home has selected for use according to Section F \u2013 QIO Schedule of Deliverables; and\niii. (IPG1 and IPG2) Collect and monitor employee turnover. The turnover rate for a given facility will be based on Certified Nursing Assistants/Aides (CNAs) no longer employed by the facility over the course of a 12 month period. For the QIO to successfully meet this requirement, at least 90% of all identified participants must report the CNA turnover rate at baseline, interim, and remeasurement. For the baseline, this 12 month period will be from January 1, 2005 \u2013 December 31, 2005. For the interim (second reporting period), the 12 month period will be from December 1, 2005 \u2013 November 30, 2006. For the final (remeasurement) reporting period, this 12 month period will be from September 1, 2006 \u2013 August 31, 2007. The QIO shall submit the information needed to calculate CNA turnover rate according to Section F \u2013 QIO Schedule of Deliverables. The information needed to calculate CNA turnover rate will be calculated in accordance with CMS instructions.\nc) In selecting IPG1, the QIO shall meet the following criteria:\ni. The QIO shall select IPG1 identified participants based on the number of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction, as indicated in the following chart. >300 10% of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction 15% of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction\nii. CMS will utilize SAS mapping software to ensure that IPG1 identified participants are distributed across the state/jurisdiction, including any rural areas in which nursing homes are located. Feedback will be provided to the QIO prior to the date that the QIO must submit its list of IPG1 identified participants. The QIO\u2019s list of IPG1 identified participants must be approved by its Project Officer and the Task 1a GTL.\niii. The QIO shall work with its state/jurisdiction partners, specifically the State Survey Agency and local stakeholder organization(s), in its selection of IPG1 identified participants. However, the confidentiality of IPG1 identified participants will remain preserved unless the provider chooses to disclose its work with the QIO.\nd) In selecting IPG2, the QIO shall meet the following criteria: The QIO shall work with the State Survey Agency to identify persistently poor performing nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction. CMS encourages the QIO to work with as many of these poor performing nursing homes as possible. The QIO must select its IPG2 to meet the minimum number of IPG2 identified participants indicated in the following chart. IPG2 identified participants shall not overlap with IPG1 identified participants.\ne) The QIO shall submit the following in accordance with Section F \u2013 QIO Schedule of Deliverables: \u2022 a list of IPG1 and IPG2 identified participants; \u2022 notification as to whether the QIO elects to have a subset of the nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction submit process of care data on a monthly basis and which nursing homes have committed to doing so. Clinical Performance Measure Results (based on publicly reported nursing home quality measures) Pressure Ulcers among High- Risk Residents The Project Officer will evaluate performance based on the activity to promote statewide clinical quality.

of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction submit monthly data to the QIO Data Warehouse on at least one of the following topics for 50% of new admissions (up to a maximum of 25 admissions per month) for 10 out of 21 months: (1) skin inspection and pressure ulcer risk assessment; (2) depression screening and treatment; (3) evaluation of the necessity for and alternatives to the use of physical restraints; and (4) pain assessment and treatment Organization al Culture Change Target Setting At least 25% of nursing homes in the state/jurisdiction must set targets for the clinical measures for (at a minimum) pressure ulcers among high-risk All IPG1 identified participants must set targets for the clinical measures for (at a minimum) pressure ulcers among high-risk residents and physical restraints All IPG2 identified participants must set targets for the clinical measures for (at a minimum) pressure ulcers among high-risk residents and physical restraints The QIO sets statewide targets for (at a minimum) pressure ulcers among high-risk residents and physical restraints residents and physical restraints Data Collection on Experience of Care >90% of all identified participants collect data on and monitor resident satisfaction/experience of care annually for three years; and >90% of all identified participants collect data on and monitor staff satisfaction/experience of care
