Default Hi Rhonda
I won't say what company I am working for but they are a huge mess. So much to do. What venue are you working in? I am in home health. I would like to do some contract work on HEDIS the next time it comes up.

Do you work for an organization that is accredited? I am trying to get familiar with the new JCAHO regs.

I work for a hospital that is owned by a corporation that has 40+ hospitals all over the Southeastern US. It is a very well run hospital and the quality of care is good.

I am the JCAHO Coordinator. We were surveyed this past August and I am also trying to get a handle on the new JCAHO Process.

Between the ORYX Core Measures and the state CMS Quality Projects, I spend alot of time reviewing charts and entering data ! ! !

Default beind in audits
No audits have been done since March at this company I am with so I am going to have to work my heiny off. LOL.

Glad your with a stable system. I was told today they are in the merger process and downsizing. I asked that during the many interviews I had and was told no they did not have anything like that going on GRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrr.
