OASIS-E1 Section K - Swallowing/Nutritional Status

Nutrition and swallowing issues can greatly impair a patient's ability to respond well to any home health care plan. In this 44-minute webinar, recorded live for CHAPCA, OASIS expert Beth Noyce, shares Medicare's guidance on capturing accurate data for familiar items measuring height and weigh as well as feeding or eating. And she details the instructions for K0520, Nutritional Approaches. M1870 (Feeding or Eating) is not only a Quality-reporting item, but also a risk-adjustment and home-health value-based purchasing calculation item. The other two, M1060: Height and Weight; and K520: Nutritional Approaches, are both risk-adjustment items, meaning their data has potential to affect all other calculations for OASIS-E1 item outcomes for both quality and HHVBPX. Learn specifics on how to capture data for these OASIS-E1 items in the correct, standardized way.
