Take the lead on patient safety

The 2025 CMS Patient Safety Structural Measure (PSSM) is reshaping how hospitals approach patient safety. This framework introduces a proactive, structural approach to patient safety, moving beyond traditional outcome-based metrics. It’s not just about compliance—PSSM represents an opportunity to embed safety into every aspect of your organization, ensuring better outcomes, stronger accountability, and a culture of excellence that elevates trust among patients and stakeholders.

To help you prepare, our comprehensive whitepaper provides valuable insights, actionable strategies, and proven tools to ensure your success. Whether you’re a part of a large healthcare system or a specialized facility, this guide empowers you to meet the requirements of PSSM while fostering meaningful, lasting improvements in patient care.

Why it matters now

Starting in 2025, hospitals will need to adhere to the new PSSM framework by annually attesting to compliance across five critical safety domains. Public reporting of these scores begins in 2026, with penalties for non-compliance taking effect by 2027. Beyond regulatory demands, PSSM offers an essential opportunity to transform safety structures, prevent harm, and build lasting trust with patients and families.
