Now available: 2023 crosswalk for Joint Commission, CMS

The “2023 Joint Commission and CMS Crosswalk” is now available from Joint Commission Resources.

The 2023 Crosswalk will aid hospitals and psychiatric hospitals preparing for a deemed status survey to ensure compliance with the latest regulatory requirements of the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and most up-to-date accreditation requirements of The Joint Commission.

Key features of this year’s Crosswalk include:

• Authoritative, side-by-side comparison of Medicare Conditions of Participation (CoPs) to equivalent Joint Commission standards, for both hospitals and psychiatric hospitals.
• Reverse crosswalk listing Joint Commission hospital and psychiatric hospital requirements with comparable CoP numbers, showing equivalencies in the opposite direction — something not found anywhere else.
• A summary of CMS changes affecting hospitals over the past year.
