This book, Simplifying Regulatory Compliance: A Crosswalk of CMS and TJC Requirements, is an easy-to-read resource that compares and contrasts the most recent requirements of The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) with those of The Joint Commission (TJC). Utilizing a table format, this resource presents each Condition of Participation, along with interpretive guidelines and relates them to the corresponding TJC standard. For each chapter, you will also find a summary that highlights key regulatory topics. This feature will help you efficiently navigate this resource, allowing you to find the requirements to some of your most challenging areas.
Not only will this tool help you effectively navigate the CMS and TJC requirements, but you will also understand that many conditions of participation correlate with the existing TJC standards. You can now satisfy multiple regulatory requirements without duplicating your efforts.
