Oasis E System Updates and Workflow Modifications

The Oasis E assessment has been deployed and will be created when a MOO90 date of 1/1/2023 or

later is used.

As our team continues to ensure the Oasis scrubber is working as expected we would like to outline

your steps:

  1. Continue to utilize the Skinny Oasis to create your NOA for SOC episodes

  2. Export it to your MAC within 5 calendar days to avoid financial penalties on your final claim.

  3. Enter the full OASIS E data into SAM for all Oasis types and finish the document

We recommend that you wait to export your OASIS E assessments to iQies until you receive the further communication confirming the scrubber is working as expected.

As a result of the very large and complex changes to this version of the OASIS assessment it will be

important for your team to become familiar with the changes and take the time needed to review each

new question and the direction provided by CMS in the Oasis User’s Manual as well as running the data

thru the new scrubber before sending your data to iQies.

You may access the CMS OASIS E User’s Manual here:

https://www.cms.gov/medicare/quality/home-health/oasis-user-manual

We will send out additional communications once the resolution to the scrubber is available. Once available, you will continue to access this new scrubber on the Oasis document in SAM by using the Validate button in the document. This scrubber will identify Fatal edits, diagnosis coding issues, potential inconsistencies, and VBP impacts which will provide support to your team as we move into Value Based Purchasing.

If you have any questions about this communication or need assistance, please contact Customer Care at spocsupport@sandata.com
