Massachusetts Health & Hospital Association The CMS Age-Friendly Hospital Measure
This event has concluded.
July 22 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
The 2025 CMS Age-Friendly Hospital Measure is a set of guidelines and metrics designed to improve the quality of care for older adults in hospitals. It assesses hospitals on their commitment to providing age-friendly care, focusing on key aspects such as patient goals, medication management, frailty screening, social vulnerability, and age-friendly leadership commitment. Hospitals must demonstrate compliance with these areas to receive credit under the measure.
This webinar will focus on the Lahey Hospital & Medical Center’s commitment to improving care for older adults while meeting these requirements. This includes leveraging the EHR and practices already in place while creating new processes to address these age-friendly principles and ultimately improve outcomes for this population. Participants will gain information on best practices aimed at achieving these goals and meeting the CMS requirements.
