Medicaid.gov

Today the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the 2019 National Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) Report, an annual report prepared by CMS with its contractor, the PASRR Technical Assistance Center. Sections 1919(b)(3)(F) and (e)(7) of the Social Security Act require that all applicants to and residents of Medicaid-certified nursing facilities (NFs) be screened for mental illness and intellectual disability and, if necessary, be provided specialized services while in the NF.

The 2019 National PASRR Report summarizes states’ self-reported data related to certain quality measures, including the timeliness of the PASRR evaluations and the outcomes for applicants and residents resulting from the evaluations. The report also summarizes responses to PASRR-related items on the Minimum Data Set. The results do not individually identify specific states. Similar information was released in a report issued in 2017.
