PASRR Services

Pre-Admission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) is a federally mandated program that requires all states to pre-screen all individuals seeking admission into a Medicaid-certified nursing facility. 

PASRR must be administered to identify: 

  • Individuals with Mental Illness (MI), Intellectual Disability (ID), or Developmental Disability (DD)/Related Conditions (RC)
  • Eligibility for Medicaid Necessity in a nursing facility 
  • Eligibility in Specialized Services 

The purpose of the PASRR Screening and Evaluation is to: 

  • Determine whether an individual identified as having evidence or an indication of mental illness, intellectual disability, or developmental disability 
  • Determine if the individual meets a PASRR qualifying diagnosis based on the Code of Federal Regulations 
  • To identify alternate placement options when applicable and to identify specialized services that may benefit the individual 
  • To refer individuals to agencies that contract with the state to provide services for persons with intellectual, developmental disabilities or related conditions
