Medical Facilities Regulatory Issues
State & Medicare Surveys
The Oklahoma State Department of Health Medical Facilities Division is
authorized by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to
survey hospitals for compliance with Medicare Conditions of
Participation and Coverage. OSDH contracts with CMS to conduct
administrative and inspection activities related to certification for
participation in the federal Medicare program. The Oklahoma Hospital
Association works closely with OSDH to ensure a clear understanding of
the survey process and to equip members with resources.
