Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR)

PASRR is a federal requirement mandating that individuals seeking admission to a Medicaid-certified nursing facility be screened for indications of serious mental illness and/or developmental disability prior to admission, and then again on a systematic basis following a significant change in their condition.

The purpose of PASRR regulations is to ensure that individuals with long-term care needs are placed in the setting that is most appropriate for their needs. Nursing facilities are ultimately responsible for ensuring that PASRR requirements have been met prior to facility admission. More information about PASRR in Ohio can be found in the following resources:
