CMS's new Patient Safety Structural Measure (PSSM) signals a shift in how hospital safety is evaluated—moving beyond outcomes to examine the leadership, governance, culture, and systems that support safe care.

In this webinar, Dayna Nicholson, will break down what hospital leaders need to know about the PSSM, including its five domains, reporting expectations, and the growing role of Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs). We'll also explore how the measure reflects broader trends in federal oversight of healthcare quality and patient safety.

Join us for a practical discussion of what the new measure means for hospitals and the key questions organizations should consider as they assess their current patient safety programs, governance structures, and risk management strategies.

Participants will gain a clear understanding of the PSSM framework and the potential implications for hospital leadership, quality teams, and patient safety initiatives.
