During an interview with the facility Scheduler #88 on 07/30/24 at approximately 8:54 AM a review was completed of The Labor Classification/ Job Title section of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services- Electronic Staffing Data Submission- Payroll-Based Journal- Long-Term Care Facility- Policy Manual Version 2.6. This section defines that the Labor Classification/Job Title Reporting shall be based on the employee' s primary role and their official categorical title. It is understood that most roles have a variety of non-primary duties that are conducted throughout the day (e.g., helping out others when needed). Facilities shall still report just the total hours of that employee based on their primary role. CMS recognizes that staff may completely shift primary roles in a given day. For example, a nurse who spends the first four hours of a shift as the unit manager, and the last four hours of a shift as a floor nurse. In these cases, facilities can change

the designated job title and report four hours as a nurse with administrative duties, and four hours as a nurse (without administrative duties). The Scheduler #88 agreed that the data RN administrative staff should not be included on the staffing posting form as they were not direct care on those days.

The Scheduler #88 also agreed that the data was missing for the census and that the data was incorrect for

the total number of staff and staff hours. She further acknowledged that the decimals used to identify the staff did not reflect an accurate count of the total direct care staff in the building.
