During an interview on 04/10/25 at 9:30 AM, the MDSC stated when a resident who was PASRR positive,
the facility scheduled an interdisciplinary team meeting that included the HC. In that meeting they
determined what services would benefit the resident. The information gathered in that meeting was entered
into the computer system. The NFSS form was completed by the DOR and entered into the computer
system. She stated the NFSS for Resident #1 was not accepted multiple times for assorted reasons. She
stated she had reached out to her PASRR contact person and to HHSC PASRR support multiple times.
During an observation and attempted interview on 04/10/25 at 10:34 AM, revealed Resident #1 sitting in a
high-back wheelchair in the day room. He did not respond when spoken to .
During an interview on 04/10/25 at 10:40 AM, the MDSC stated the NFSS forms were supposed to be
submitted 20 or 21 days after the care plan meeting. She stated she and the DOR received alerts when the
NFSS forms were not accepted in the system.
During a telephone interview on 04/10/25 at 10:53 AM, the PASRR Program Specialist stated when a
resident was admitted and was PASRR positive, an IDT meeting was held, and services were
recommended. The facility then had 20 business days to send the NFSS out for approvals. She stated
Resident #1's facility did not send the form within 20 business days. She stated that was when she sent out
a courtesy email encouraging compliance. She stated if she received no response from that, she then
made a complaint to HHSC. She stated if services were approved and a resident went to the hospital, the
process would start over once they were readmitted . She stated but the bottom line was Resident #1's trip
to the hospital had nothing to do with the facility sending the form within 20 days.
During an interview on 04/10/25 at 12:50 PM, the ADM stated he was new to the facility but at is last facility,
the SW and MDSC would get started on the PASRR referrals right away after a resident
