Conditions of Admission Document - Regulatory Source
Can someone point me in the right direction for finding the regulatory source for the requirements to provide Conditions of Admission to hospital patients? Is this a state regulation? CMS? Conditions of Participation? I can find reference to providing Conditions of Admission to patients in the Medicare Manual but those citing are around waivers, etc.
Thank you.
