QIS Wizard
You Need QIS Confidence and We’ve Got You Covered
You deserve the chance to assess, correct and eliminate problems before the CMS surveyor arrives. This is what our QIS Wizard tool allows.
The Quality Indicator Survey, or QIS, is a two-stage CMS survey process measuring long term care facilities’ success in meeting federal quality requirements.
Rely on McKesson to guide you through the QIS training process with our industry-leading QIS tool. You’ll practice with real QIS survey forms using the same questions a CMS survey agent will use. By getting you prepared before the formal CMS QIS Survey begins, QIS Wizard can help you master Stage 1 and avoid Stage 2 altogether.
Gives you the diagnosis and the cure!- QIS Wizard is the solution that helps identify problems and provides staff with training to effectively remediate those problems
- It helps facilities address quality assurance issues they may be facing
- QIS Wizard uses the same questions, processes and thresholds that the CMS surveyor will use
- QIS Wizard runs locally on a laptop—avoiding frustrating data loss due to interrupted network connections
- No one sees private resident data except those authorized by the facility
- With QIS Wizard, staff can get started in no time!
- Lessons to train staff on fixing QIS shortfalls
- Complete surveys for up to 200 residents at once!
- Robust reporting tools that let you drill down into problem areas
Whether you’re preparing for the QIS rollout or even if you’ve already been affected, our QIS education resources are an excellent QA/QI resident satisfaction tool.

Knowledge is Power: Make Sure You Know About the New MDS 3.0
Knowing what changes with MDS 3.0 is the first step. MDS 3.0 is a series of scripted interviews centered around the residents’ cognition, activity, personal preferences and pain.
