The IPS team will compile a statistically valid, randomly selected sample of records to review. The set of selected records will be requested upon arrival at the facility. The consultant(s) will review the charts’ following attributes to ensure compliance with regulations including Medicare, Medicaid, and others: Doctors’ orders Medicine Administration Records (MARS) Treatment Administration Records (TARS) Observation of treatment rendered to patients (is care being administered as documented and vice versa) Provider Preventable Conditions (PPCs) The team will also review associated policies and procedures for both regulatory requirements and protocols specific to the healthcare facility. Off-site Report Composition Following the data review and on-site assessment, the IPS team will compile and compose the final report to present to the Client and its leadership team. This report encompasses all findings and recommendations, including any final feedback received from the Client during the exit interview at the end of the on-site assessment phase.
