The DNS understands that leading continuous improvement is necessary
The DNS understands that leading continuous improvement is necessary as it relates to the Five-Star Quality Rating System because of which of the following?
A The cut points for QMs remain constant in the Five-Star program, but the regulations require QMs to improve by 50% annually.
B In April 2020 and thereafter, CMS will adjust the thresholds for QMs every six months by 50% of the average rate of improvement.
C CMS will award an additional 2 stars to facilities that improve their QMs above the 75th percentile.
D The DNS does not have responsibility in regards to the Five-Star rating. Rather, this is the responsibility of the nurse assessment coordinator to monitor and report to the nursing home administrator.
