Percentage of patients with chart documentation of preferences for life sustaining treatments.

This measure reports the percentage of long-stay residents in a nursing facility, who reported almost constant or frequent pain, and at least one episode of moderate to severe pain, or any very severe/horrible pain in the 5 days prior to the target assessment. This measure is based on data from the Minimum Data Set (MDS 3.0) OBRA, PPS, and/or discharge assessments during the selected quarter. This measure is risk-adjusted for resident cognitive status. Long-stay nursing facility residents are identified as those who have had 101 or more cumulative days of nursing facility care.

This measure reports the percentage of short-stay residents in a nursing facility, who reported almost constant or frequent pain, and at least one episode of moderate to severe pain, or any very severe/horrible pain in the 5 days prior to the target assessment. This measure is based on data from the Minimum Data Set (MDS 3.0) OBRA, PPS, and/or discharge assessments during the selected quarter.

PointRight OnPoint-30 is an all-cause, risk adjusted rehospitalization measure.

The PointRight Pro Long Stay Hospitalization Measure is an MDS-based, risk-adjusted measure of the rate of hospitalization of long-stay patients (also known as “residents”) of skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) averaged across the year, weighted by the number of stays in each quarter.
