Enroll in the NHSN COVID-19 Module

Last updated on

HHSC has published the National Healthcare Safety Network Long Term Care Facility COVID-19 Module Enrollment (PDF). The letter explains who can report into the NHSN COVID-19 module including:

  • Assisted Living Facilities.
  • Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with an Intellectual disability.
  • Nursing Facilities.

Enrolling in the NHSN COVID-19 module provides long-term care facilities with a secure reporting platform. This allows for reporting outcomes and process measures in a systematic way so they can meet the DSHS reporting requirements for COVID-19 cases, testing, and more. The NHSN reporting system has fewer system requirements than the DSHS system. Some providers may prefer its user interface.
