OASIS-E2: The New Changes Coming April 1st Are No Joke! (Recorded Webinar)
Presented by Cindy Krafft and Anna Zimmerman
OASIS-E2 comes into effect on April 1st, 2026, but the incoming changes are no joke! The new updates carry meaningful implications for assessment accuracy. This session will focus on the specific item updates and skip pattern changes introduced in OASIS-E2, while also revisiting ongoing challenges presented by certain OASIS items. We will examine the documentation needed to support accurate and defensible responses. To help tailor the discussion to real-world challenges, attendees are invited to submit questions in advance. Cindy Krafft will prioritize questions addressing regulatory nuances, documentation consistency, and the impact of OASIS on agency performance.
Learning Outcomes
- Identify the item revisions included in the OASIS-E2 update
- Explain the revised skip patterns and their impact on assessment workflow and scoring
- Apply documentation strategies that support accurate, compliant, and defensible OASIS data collection
