The RAC-CT certification program consists of 10 education courses designed for post-acute care professionals with at least six months of experience with the MDS/RAI process. If you have less than six months of experience, consider taking MDS Essentials as a foundation to get you started and make sure you’re prepared to succeed in the RAC-CT program. 

This workshop covers the following content:

• MDS Coding for OBRA and PPs, parts 1 and 2
• OBRA Timing and Scheduling
• Care Area Assessments
• Introduction to Medicare Part A
• Care Planning
• Introduction to ICD-10-CM Coding for Long-Term Care
• Five-Star Rating System
• Quality Measures
• Managing PDPM in the SNF

Your workshop registration includes access to the 10 RAC-CT certification exams. To earn the RAC-CT credential, you must successfully complete the associated final certification exams with a score of 80% or higher. You will have one year from the date of the workshop before they expire. There are three exam attempts per course. Recertification is required every two years.

*PLEASE NOTE: This workshop is geared towards those who are not yet RAC-CT certified.  

This workshop will be hosted online, through a virtual platform. Your registration includes four days of instruction from a Master Teacher, access to digital workshop materials, and access to the 10 certification exams.
