Regulatory Compliance

Long-Term Care

Medline brings tools and approaches that enable you, your staff and your facility to understand, act on and succeed in complying with complex regulations.

abaqis® for Survey Readiness

Ready for your survey. Ready for anything.

The abaqis Quality Management System is a web-based assessment and reporting tool. It uses resident, family and staff interviews, as well as resident observations and chart reviews to identify causes of deficiencies and targets areas for action.

Using the exact methodology of the QIS to collect baseline data, abaqis assesses your compliance against federal regulations and compares your data to a validated threshold of allowable negative answers—providing a high statistical likelihood of compliance or non-compliance.

See how abaqis can prepare you for surveys and stay in compliance.

abaqis QAPI

QAPI improves quality. abaqis shows your quality.

QAPI measures quality and ensures that quality improvement is ongoing. Long-term care facilities must develop and implement a QAPI plan as mandated by the Affordable Care Act.

QAPI is “data driven,” which means you have to provide the detailed data to demonstrate your quality. abaqis gives you a comprehensive, easy-to-use tool that meets all five QAPI elements. It measures your facility against national benchmarks and provides rich reporting to help with referral marketing.
