Acentra Health is Nebraska’s Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) vendor. Since January 1, 2021 hospitals and nursing homes have been successfully using Acentra's provider portal to complete PASRR Level I screenings and to request PASRR Level II evaluations and determinations. The process is completely electronic and provides for instant Level I results and timely Level II outcomes. Acentra will continue providing comprehensive training to assist agency, hospital, and nursing home staff in registering for provider portal access, managing user accounts, completing Level I screenings and facilitating Level II requests.
