About the Program

We partner with the Division of Medicaid to perform Level II on-site evaluations for the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program - and have done so since 2012. PASRR assessments are performed on individuals who are applying to, or residing in, Medicaid-certified nursing homes. The primary objective of this federally-mandated assessment is to determine whether the nursing home is the appropriate placement for individuals with mental illness, intellectual disabilities or developmental disabilities. PASRR also works as a critical function to help match individuals with the care and services they need.
