OASIS Answers ‘INSTANT Hacks’ Webinar Series
Two sessions: December and January
- December 17-18, 2020, from 12 to 2 p.m. (Register by December 9, 2020)
- January 12-13, 2021, from 2 to 4 p.m. (Register by January 4, 2021)
HCA is partnering with OASIS Answers, Inc. (OAI) to offer OAI’s ‘INSTANT Hacks’ series.
In this unique, hands-on learning experience, home health clinicians will learn some behind-the-scenes ‘hacks’ that OAI’s experts use to organize, highlight, and quickly access key CMS guidance. OAI uses this resource when teaching Blueprint for OASIS Accuracy workshops, conducting audits, and responding to provider questions.
The training sessions span over two days. Each day consists of a two-hour-long webinar.
Prior to the training dates, attendees will receive by mail a hardcopy “INSTANT OASIS Hacks Kit.” This indispensable resource can be used during the open-book COS-C Exam and day-to-day OASIS work.
IMPORTANT: Register by the deadlines above to ensure you have your ‘Hacks Kit’ for each webinar session.

No-Cost Workforce Training Available through Regional WIOs
No-cost trainings are available to your home care staff throughout the state of New York via the Workforce Investment Organizations (WIOs).
