🔥 WELCOME TO THE INAUGURAL EPISODE OF THE SURVEY READINESS PODCAST 🔥

This is not another compliance podcast.
This is where post-acute care leaders learn what real survey readiness actually means.

In the first episode of the Survey Readiness Podcast, your host Dr. Kirk breaks down the latest CMS memos that are actively changing how surveys are conducted, enforced, and defended. These are not minor updates. They are reshaping the risk landscape for skilled nursing facilities right now.

Joining the conversation is Veronica Caesar, a nationally respected consultant in survey readiness and clinical reimbursement. Together, they get honest about what facilities are missing, what surveyors are actually looking for, and why last-minute prep and binders full of paper are no longer enough.

🎯 In this episode, you will learn:

✔ What the newest CMS enforcement trends really mean for Admins and DONs
✔ Why mock surveys are no longer optional if you want predictable outcomes
✔ How weak care planning and poor QAPI oversight escalate into costly enforcement
✔ Why interdisciplinary teamwork is now a survey expectation, not a bonus
✔ How leadership engagement outside the “survey window” determines success

This is straight talk, grounded in real surveys, real citations, and real consequences.
No buzzwords. No theory. Just what is happening in buildings across the country.

If you are an Administrator, DON, Compliance Officer, Regional, or Operator, this episode is your blueprint for thinking the way surveyors think and preparing the way CMS now expects.
