Why Compliance Matters at Every Step
Compliance is always important. But, especially so in long-term care admissions.
Each unsigned arbitration agreement, incomplete PASRR, or missing consent form represents potential exposure: fines, survey citations, delayed move-ins, or costly disputes.
Many compliance failures are actually workflow problems - tasks managed by memory, email, and spreadsheets instead of automated coordination.
Where Compliance Breaks Down
Manual tracking hides blind spots that leadership rarely sees until an audit or issues hits.
Common breakdowns:
- Incomplete or outdated arbitration agreements
- PASRR forms delayed or missing documentation
- State-specific requirements handled manually
- No unified audit trail across facilities
- Tasks assigned but never verified
These gaps create real financial, regulatory and reputational risk, while slowing admissions and frustrating teams.
Arbitration Agreements: The Overlooked Liability
Arbitration agreements protect facilities when disputes arise - but only if they’re properly executed.
When these documents live in PDFs and filing cabinets, critical signatures go missing and no one notices until they are needed.
In a paper-or-PDF environment, even the best teams are forced to chase compliance after the fact instead of ensuring it from the start.

What We Mean By...
Arbitration Agreement
A legally binding document defining how disputes are resolved outside of court. Proper execution protects LTC providers from costly litigation.
PASRR (Pre-Admission Screening and Resident Review)
A federal requirement verifying that individuals with certain diagnoses are appropriately placed before LTC admission. Often a major compliance delay when handled manually.
Audit Trail
An automatically generated record showing who completed which task and when. Essential for survey readiness and legal defensibility.
