CMS star rating
Average change in overall rating by the following cycle. CMS sets star ratings from inspections, staffing and quality measures, so many factors besides our coverage affect them.
Outcomes
What we have tracked in covered buildings
Internal figures from covered skilled nursing facilities, each compared with its own baseline before coverage began. They have not been independently audited.
What changed in covered buildings
36.7%
Fewer send-outs
Average reduction in transfers out of the building for pain and musculoskeletal complaints, against each building's baseline. A physician on a standing cadence can often see a resident before a transfer is considered.
68.7%
Resident satisfaction
Average improvement in resident-reported satisfaction with how their pain is addressed, from facility surveys.
Figures are internal, unaudited averages across covered facilities and are not a guarantee of results in any individual building. Baselines, case mix and starting rating all affect what a facility should expect. We will share the underlying data and method with you before you commit to anything.
Why these move together
Untreated pain shows up as refused therapy, as falls, as behavior, and as a 2:00 a.m. transfer. Treating it on site with a physician-led team can address the quality measure and the resident at the same time, and the documentation that results is what your MDS and survey readiness depend on.
We are glad to review your current quality measure profile and say plainly where coverage would and would not help.
