We provide expert consulting and management services to states across the country, and we are thrilled to be partnering with the State of Colorado to manage the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program.
PASRR and Opportunity Overview:
PASRR is a powerful and effective program established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This federally required program assesses all individuals who are seeking admittance to a Medicaid-certified nursing facility, to ensure that individuals with serious mental illness, intellectual, and/or developmental disabilities are placed in the least restrictive setting and receive recommended services to improve their quality of life.
We are contracting with Qualified Mental Health Professionals (QMHPs) across the State of Colorado to administer these PASRR assessments on a flexible, PRN basis.
This is a wonderful opportunity to earn extra money, have a flexible schedule, and provide a valuable service to adult citizens in your community.

- Assessments typically occur at hospitals and nursing facilities but may be at an alternative location on occasion.
