Illinois is transitioning PASRR (Pre-admission Screening and Resident Review) processes to a new web-based system called AssessmentPro starting March 14, 2022, managed by vendor Maximus. Providers can share protected health information with Maximus for PASRR purposes without needing a separate Business Associate Agreement, as this is permitted under HIPAA regulations.
Action Required
No immediate billing system changes required. Providers submitting PASRR materials for nursing facility admissions should transition to using the new AssessmentPro web-based system and can share PHI with Maximus without requiring a separate Business Associate Agreement.
