2025 OASIS-E1 Updates: What Certified Providers Need to Know When Working with Private Payors (Webinar)

December 18, 2024 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (EST)

Description

Do you think OASIS only pertains to your Medicare and Medicaid patients? Think again! As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, staying ahead of regulatory changes is crucial for all home care providers participating in the Medicare or Medicaid program. The 2025 updates to the OASIS-E1 assessment tool introduce new requirements and adjustments that directly impact patient care documentation and reimbursement processes. This webinar will delve into these changes, with a special focus on the expectations and requirements when it comes to OASIS completion for Certified Home Health providers and those patients with reimbursement sources other than traditional or managed care Medicare and Medicaid. By understanding these updates, providers can ensure compliance, optimize reimbursement, and maintain high-quality care standards.

Objectives:

  1. Understand the Key Changes: Identify and interpret the major updates in the 2025 OASIS-E1, including new data elements and documentation requirements.
  2. Impact on Completion Requirements for Certified Providers for Payors Other than Medicare: Analyze how the OASIS-E1 changes influence interactions with private payors, including implications for reimbursement and care coordination.
  3. Compliance Strategies: Develop strategies for ensuring compliance with the updated OASIS-E1 standards while working with all payors.
  4. Best Practices for Implementation: Explore practical steps for integrating the 2025 OASIS-E1 changes into your practice to enhance care delivery and optimize financial outcomes.

This webinar is designed to equip Certified home health providers with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the upcoming changes confidently and effectively.
