PDGM changes for the home health industry made sweeping changes designed to address inefficient volume practices in the PPS model. Focused on elements of the PPS model that were based on volume\, Medicare made changes to prompt desired value practices. These changes included tying home health payments to start of care (SOC) Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) accuracy\, establishing 30/60-day episodes\, removing therapy visit totals from the payment formula\, and much more.

All three providers have reinvented care development and delivery processes to assure full compliance with the PDGM changes. By approaching the elements of the reform in a step-by-step manner\, they addressed all departments in their agency to rewire processes to support the reforms.
