Accurate reimbursement through outsourced and remote MDS coordinators
Finding and retaining a skilled MDS coordinator has never been more important or more difficult. Because staffing shortages have become the norm rather than exception in long-term care communities, many are being forced to ask their staff to take on additional responsibilities. This means higher levels of burnout and significant challenges when it comes to meeting MDS and nurse assessment requirements.
