Blueprint for OASIS Accuracy is a 2-day, 13-hour workshop highly focused on the OASIS E2 data collection rules and instructions. As these rules continue to evolve, Blueprint keeps you up to date, always sourcing instructions and providing the latest key source documents in handout form to rely upon after the workshop. Empowering staff with defendable OASIS scoring practices provides your agency with the accurate outcomes and proper reimbursement you deserve to provide quality care. All sessions are presented by two expert instructors who have earned the Certificate for OASIS Specialist-Clinical (COS-C) designation. Our instructors use their many years and varied home health experiences to illustrate concepts, answer questions and guide attendees easily through multiple application scenarios and a mock exam. The Blueprint for OASIS Accuracy program serves as the premier review workshop for the COS-C exam and is offered exclusively through OASIS Answers, Inc. – the industry leader in OASIS Education.
This workshop is designed to:
- Teach home health clinicians how to collect OASIS data using all the most recent guidance from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
- Provide a preparatory review for candidates for the COS-C (Certificate for OASIS Specialist-Clinical) Exam.
- Supply the knowledge and tools to boost clinical confidence with a foundation of precise data collection.
- Provide nursing contact hours.
