progress in accordance with the original
or revised treatment plan.
• Section 482.61(e), requiring that
each patient who has been discharged
has a documented discharge summary.
• Section 482.62(c), requiring that, if
medical and surgical diagnostic and
treatment services are not available
within the institution, the institution
have an agreement with an outside
source of these services to ensure that
they are immediately available or a
satisfactory agreement must be
established for transferring patients to a
general hospital that participates in the
Medicare program.
• Section 482.62(g)(1), requiring that
therapeutic activities be appropriate to
the needs and interests of patients and
be directed toward restoring and
maintaining optimal levels of physical
and psychosocial functioning.
In addition, we determined that the
Joint Commission is in the process of, or
has completed, revising its accreditation
survey processes in order to ensure that
they meet the following regulatory
requirements:
• Section 488.4(a)(3), regarding the
sample sizes required for medical record
reviews and the minimum number of
medical records to be reviewed during
the survey process.
• Section 488.8(a)(2)(v), requiring that
complaint data submitted to CMS be
accurate.
• Section 488.8(a)(2)(ii), requiring
that a process be in place to conduct
routine second level survey
documentation review to assure that
deficiency citations are made at the
appropriate level when no ‘‘flags’’ have
been placed on the survey report
through the automated process of the
electronic scoring system or the
surveyor; that surveyors are adequately
equipped and trained to appropriately
identify circumstances posing an
immediate threat to life and safety; that
medical records and credentialing
records are sampled appropriately,
based on services provided and types of
staff employed; and that medical
records and credentialing records are
reviewed thoroughly, in a uniform and
complete manner by surveyors.
• Section 488.9, requiring the Joint
Commission to consistently provide
CMS access to observe its entire survey
process, including surveyors’ use of
resources provided outside of the
accreditation standards manual (for
example, discussions with its Standards
Interpretation Group, as outlined in the
application).
• Section 488.26(b), regarding
surveyors’ abilities to—
—Accurately and completely
document instances of non-compliance

Jkt 235001
at the appropriate level of citation
[condition versus standard level
citations];
—Ensure that all instances of
observed non-compliance are
documented in the survey report; and,
—Ensure that surveyors do not
minimize the importance of compliance
with regulations.
B. Term of Approval
Based on our review and observations
described in section III of this final
notice, we approve the Joint
Commission as a national accrediting
organization for psychiatric hospitals
that request participation in the
Medicare program, effective February
25, 2015 through February 25, 2019.
To verify the Joint Commission’s
continued compliance with the
provisions of this final notice, CMS will
conduct a follow-up corporate on-site
visit and survey observation within 18
months of the publication date of this
notice.
V. Collection of Information
Requirements
This document does not impose
information collection requirements,
that is, reporting, recordkeeping or
third-party disclosure requirements.
Consequently, there is no need for
review by the Office of Management and
Budget under the authority of the
