See what your peers are saying about The CMS-Joint Commission Crosswalk, 2011 Edition:
"The CMS-Joint Commission Crosswalk proved to be a great tool this past year with multiple CMS validation and Joint Commission surveys occurring within our health system. These past few years the Joint Commission has been rapidly revising its accreditation standards to align with CMS regulations and having the crosswalk in a word search capable adobe file was very helpful."
