Improve Surgical Care for Older Patients and Comply with CMS Requirements

This webinar explains how the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Geriatric Verification Program (GSV) can help your hospital:

  • Drive better outcomes
  • Shorten length of stay due to complications like post-operative delirium
  • Reduce readmissions, and
  • Enhance quality of life for your older patients.

Importantly, the GSV program helps hospitals meet the new the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Age Friendly Hospital Measure that is required for all hospitals participating in the CMS Inpatient Quality Reporting Program. Hospitals must demonstrate compliance across the whole hospital, including the emergency department and surgery. CMS will publicly report hospital compliance with this measure beginning in 2026.

Should you have any questions or would like to schedule a brief consultation to discuss the application process, please contact us at [email protected]. We're here to support you every step of the way.
