The federal Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOICPA) offers unique benefits to former nuclear workers, but also places Medicare-certified home health providers at risk of denial or recovery of claims for EEOICPA-eligible patients and covered illnesses. Providing care for a patient to remain at home often requires multiple types of home care providers, including Medicare, EEOICPA-certified, and private pay. During this session, participants will learn how working with non-Medicare-certified, EEOICPA-certified providers can maximize patient care while minimizing Medicare recovery risks. Read more

The session will focus on understanding emergency management and what home care providers need to know to be prepared. Due to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency of the past two years, regulatory changes have been introduced that impact your agency's Comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Plan (CEMP).

As part of the discussion, we will also explore the "all-hazards" approach to risk assessment as it relates to emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) and recommended best practices in the interpretive guidelines.

"With the implementation of the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) in 2020, providers have had to adapt to the new system's incentive to maximize efficiency while maintaining a high quality of care. In their pursuit of efficient, quality care delivery under the PDGM, the most pressing challenges providers have encountered have been adjusting to the two 30-day payment periods within each 60-day episode, as well as navigating the fluctuating LUPA (Low Utilization Payment Adjustment) thresholds of 2-6 visits per each of the two 30-day periods. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) threw another curveball at providers with the publication of the 2022 Home Health Final Rule, which calls for nationwide implementation of Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) in 2023. The HHVBP further emphasizes the importance of efficient, quality-based care delivery. In this session, we will explore utilization and LUPA trends identified in CMS claims data, strategies implemented by Sutter Care at Home and McBee to mitigate avoidable LUPA and enhance quality care delivery, and identify best practice recommendations for success under a value-based care delivery model."

Patients/clients receiving care at home are so accustomed to receiving high-level service, and they want to maintain a personal relationship with the agency providing the care. Home care agencies need to adopt marketing strategies at the grassroots level, and this presentation explains how to leverage community-based initiatives that will plant the seed for future growth. The best part is that grassroots programs are usually free or very inexpensive, you only have to invest your time! Read more

Explore why strategic process improvements are essential during times of change. With the impacts of the pandemic on your organization’s culture, morale, recruitment, retention, and financial outcomes - all combined with the everchanging healthcare regulatory and reimbursement landscape - the future can look daunting. The impacts of the national roll out of value-based purchasing (VBP), the sustained growth of Medicare Advantage (MA), the reduction of Medicare Fee-For-Service (FFS), and the recent addition of the Value-based Insurance Deign Model (VBID) can be tamed through the effective use of the strategic process improvements. In this session you will get perspectives on how the strategic process works, how it can prepare you for these changes and the ones to come, but, most of all, how to roll these initiatives out to your staff to assure your agency thrives given the stresses of the operating environment today along with the rise of these transformational reimbursement models.
