Tell me about a time you had to keep several regulatory deadlines on track at once.

About the work
Walk me through how you would collect and validate data for a CMS core measure before it gets reported.
What they are checking: Whether they know that bad data in a public report is worse than late data, and check it before submission.
How do you prepare a unit for a Joint Commission survey?
What they are checking: Whether they understand accreditation standards well enough to find gaps before surveyors do.
What improvement method do you use, like PDSA or Lean, and how have you applied it?
What they are checking: Whether they can structure improvement work so changes are tested and measured rather than guessed at.
How do you audit electronic documentation for compliance with standards?
What they are checking: Whether they can design an audit that samples fairly and finds the real documentation gaps.
