Acentra Health, formerly Kepro, conducts Level II pre-admission screening and resident review (PASRR) evaluations of persons with suspected or confirmed diagnoses of intellectual disability or related condition, who are seeking admission to or residing in Medicaid-certified nursing facilities in Florida.
Acentra Health utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach. Acentra's professionals, which include, psychologists, nurses, social workers, and physicians work together to evaluate the appropriateness of nursing facility placement and the need for Specialized Services for each individual referred for a PASRR Level II evaluation.
Acentra adheres to the Federal and state regulations governing the PASRR process. The Level II evaluations are sensitive to each individual’s culture, language, ethnic origin, and means of communication.

Acentra accepts Level II pre-admission screening and resident review (PASRR) submissions via our online provider portal. Any nursing home or hospital staff who are responsible for completing Level I screens and/or submitting Level II requests are eligible to register to use the portal. Electronic Level II requests are optional but recommended.
The benefits include real-time access to submission statuses, treatment recommendations, and determinations as well as any historical data submitted by the provider. Supporting PDF documents can be uploaded via the portal which will eliminate problems typically associated with faxes, although faxes will continue to be accepted as needed. Providers will be able to print Level II determinations for resident files at their convenience, again eliminating any lost or discarded faxes.
