Description
Could the world of home health get any more dramatic? Due to the reimbursement system's dependence on data collection, the recent global pandemic will impact benchmarks and trends in care practices for years to come. The after-effects, coupled with the national rollout of the Expanded Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) Model and ongoing refinements to the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM), will make it necessary for home health to adjust operationally and financially. For agencies seeking to exceed expectations in this new health care landscape, what is the best course of action? We'll look at where it all starts — the referral. Find out how to evaluate a referral for the appropriate level of care and forecast the care path for each patient to achieve optimal outcomes and financial success.
