Are You Ready? A Practical Guide to the New Patient Safety Structural Measures

September 29, 2026

Mandatory reporting under the Patient Safety Structural Measures (PSSM) is no longer on the horizon. Health systems now face the task of demonstrating compliance across 25 structural measures spanning five domains, from leadership accountability to culture of safety and learning. For large organizations operating across acute, ambulatory, and telehealth settings, a one-size approach won’t hold up. 

In this session Origami Risk’s Bill Schwacke, Healthcare Practice Leader, in a discussion with Kelly Cristaldi, Product Marketing Manager, examines how existing workflows — event capture, audit and attestation, and lessons learned — map to PSSM requirements and where gaps typically appear.  

Attendees will leave with a clearer picture of where their organization may already be further along than they think, and what it takes to connect investigation findings to corrective action in a way that holds up to scrutiny. 

You’ll Learn How to:

  • Identify which PSSM domains present the highest documentation and workflow gaps for most health systems. 
  • Explain how audit templates and electronic attestation can satisfy structural measure requirements across diverse care settings. 
  • Apply a lessons learned framework that moves from incident findings to assigned corrective actions, not just a report that sits in a folder.
