Once the application is submitted, it will be reviewed by ABA staff. If approved, your Pre-Review Questionnaire (PRQ) will be created in the Burn Care Quality Platform (BCQP) and you will be sent information on how to complete it. This process may take several months; it is important that ample time is allotted to complete it. The PRQ must be completed 8 weeks in advance of the verification review.
Approximately five months before the desired timeframe for the visit, the burn center will be contacted by the Verification Coordinator to schedule the visit. The Verification Coordinator will confirm the date and time, as well as the reviewers when available. The reviewers include two physician reviewers (onsite), a therapy reviewer, and a nursing reviewer (both virtual).
In the two months leading up to the site visit, it is the burn center’s responsibility to coordinate logistics with the reviewers. It is the burn center’s responsibility to arrange and pay for any ground transportation, meals, and lodging ahead of time.
