EP 35 PBJ: Staying Compliant and Survey Ready with Melanie Flachs

from Heart-to-Heart with HealthCap

Payroll-Based Journal (PBJ) reporting isn't always top of mind—until it is. In this episode of Heart to Heart with HealthCap, Angie Szumlinski is joined by Melanie Flachs of The Peplinski Group, a seasoned nurse and long-term care leader, to discuss what every senior living operator should know about PBJ, RN coverage, and the real-time tracking that can make or break your star rating. From decoding F-tags and identifying common coding pitfalls to practical strategies for weekend coverage, Melanie shares how her communities stay survey-ready through intentional staffing processes, strong data oversight, and an evolving approach to workforce planning. We also explore innovations like medication aides and dining assistants as part of a smarter, more efficient staffing model. Whether you're a DON, administrator, or anyone navigating staffing mandates, you'll gain actionable insights and a deeper understanding of how to transform PBJ from a regulatory challenge into a powerful management tool.
