The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) updated the Conditions of Participation (CoP) for the first time since 2004 in mid-October. Most of the information added to the CoPs was previously released by CMS in Survey and Certification memos. (Click here to access the archive containing those memos).
To help readers better understand the updates, we’re created a cross walk of the 2004 and 2008 CMS medical staff and governing body standards. The crosswalk is located on the CRC Blog www.credentialingresourcecenter.com/blog under the entry “CMS updates CoPs.”
