Guarantee Your Success with HH VBP

[3861] Guarantee Your Success with HH VBP
This progressive presentation tackles the HH VBP reform from all angles for success to assure your V2V performance produces newly identified outcome levels. Presentation Info: TAHC&H Event | 55th Annual Conference | Rich-Media Presentation Capture | Online On-Demand Access Presentation Date | September 10, 2024 Program Description: Home Health’s Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Model is the latest of the Impact Act Volume to Value reforms to affect how we develop and deliver care. By redefining HH quality in terms of Pay-for-Performance (P4P), VBP seeks to improve care efficiency. As a result, traditional HH Care production and management processes fail to achieve VBP-based quality baselines and the related bonus payment. When reviewing the HH VBP model, it quickly becomes apparent that the depth and specificity employed to track, define, and reward qualified care extends well beyond the current level of management in most Home Health agencies. The complexity of VBP contrasts starkly with both the Star Ratings and HHCAHPS models we know, and it is much more difficult to achieve success. Finally, HH VPB will deliver bonus payments to the top 10% of HH Providers nationally, and few if any Providers could hope to qualify for the bonus without a major VBP-based quality initiative in their agencies. This progressive presentation tackles the HH VBP reform from all angles for success to assure your V2V performance produces newly identified outcome levels.

HHCAHPS: Patient Experience vs Patient Satisfaction and Why it matters in HHVBP

[3837] HHCAHPS: Patient Experience vs Patient Satisfaction and Why it matters in HHVBP
In-depth look at the HHCAHPS survey to learn how scores are interpreted, their impact, and how to improve your agency’s performance. Presentation Info: TAHC&H Event | Winter Conference | Fort Worth | Rich-Media Presentation Capture for Your Online On-Demand Access Presentation Date | February 22, 2024 Presentation Track | Medicare Home Health Program Description: With the introduction of the Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) Model, there's a direct financial implication for agencies based on their Home Health Care Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HHCAHPS) measures. It's vital for home health providers to recognize that "Patient Experience" is as crucial, if not more so, than the conventional view of HHCAHPS as simply a "Patient Satisfaction" indicator. A detailed examination of HHCAHPS reveals that an impressive 17 out of 19 questions zero in on patient experience, underlining its increasing significance. This focus resonates with the trends we've seen in acute care settings in the past few years. Elevating your agency's HHCAHPS scores holds significance because it indicates not just patient contentment but can also catalyze enhancements in quality, influence reimbursement and financial support, establish a competitive edge, guarantee adherence to regulations, furnish ongoing insights, enhance staff involvement, and foster a culture of accountability and transparency. Ultimately, this endeavor contributes to improved patient care and outcomes. In this program you will receive insights into the specific HHCAHPS questions that influence patients' evaluations of clinicians. Actionable strategies are offered to help agencies enhance patient experiences, improve HHCAHPS scores, and cultivate a more robust relationship between patients and clinicians in today's healthcare environment. View this in-depth look at the HHCAHPS survey to learn how scores are interpreted, their impact, and how to improve your agency’s performance.

Technology is certainly making management of children with Tracheostomies, Ventilator dependence and other complex needs easier, and reimbursement for PDN looks attractive, but liability, regulatory requirements, staff competency, documentation, and care management are necessary at more than basic levels to meet quality of care and safety needs of these medically complex children.

Who are qualified staff? What are key clinical skills to manage trach and vent dependent children at home? What are documentation challenges to address? What is enough supervision for safe delivery of care? How can positive outcomes be best achieved? Would "minimum standards" be enough for your child? Program Objectives: Upon completion of this program, the viewer will be able to: Identify three methods of determining nursing competence. Evaluate the reference for Home and Community Support Services Agencies (HCSSA) minimum standards for licensure relating to staff. Analyze three key elements of a compliant pediatric tracheostomy and ventilator competency program. Identify three areas of high risk in providing pediatric tracheostomy and ventilator care. Demonstrate pediatric nursing ventilator essential skills and competency. Describe three key behaviors to observe during Registered Nurse (RN) supervisory and reassessment visits to children with tracheostomies.
