PDGM Year 2 Assessment & Improvement Plans (Webinar)

PDGM Year 2 Assessment & Improvement Plans (Webinar)

Tuesday, November 9, 2021 (3:00 PM - 4:00 PM) (EST)

Description

The Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) was implemented as a replacement for the Medicare Home Health Prospective Payment System (HH PPS) in January 2020. This webinar will take a deep dive into the PDGM lessons learned to date, how COVID-19 affected the rollout, and what we may be seeing in 2022. SimiTree Healthcare Consulting's Nick Seabrook and John Rabbia will provide data assessments and suggested improvement plans as your agency plans for the future.

At the conclusion of this program, the participant will be able to:

  • Describe how to engage your operations team using key performance indicators while benchmarking to industry norms on specific PDGM Key Performance Indicators (KPIs);
  • Define how your strategic vision drives operational changes to achieve success through visit utilization concepts, diversifying continuum of care through other delivery models, and continued focus on revenue cycle management; and
  • Identify areas of focus within the PDGM to advance business development strategies while addressing the organizational needs.
