Faculty:Spears, Jan
Program Description:
This program presents the pros and cons of working with MCOs in and out of network. As
traditional payor sources implement payment reductions, new payment models or move exclusively
to Managed Care, home health agencies are once again looking at the best way to work within the
Managed Care arena. Some MCOs can pick and choose their provider networks based upon
geographical area, STARs reporting, and pricing models. Medicaid MCOs typically offer below
market value contracts. Although the MCO must follow the home health rules, the payer can
establish additional requirements such as prior authorization, timeframes for physician signatures,
etc. that can be more stringent than the traditional counterpart. The avenues for appeals are
cumbersome and often leave the provider “holding the bag.”
Learn how to package your agency for
quality, cost and satisfaction in advance of seeking contracts with the MCOs in your area. Delivering
care in accordance with MCO requirements requires process modifcation for order development,
authorization management and billing. In addition, the presenter touches on best practice processes to improve
coverage and reduce days outstanding on your claims. Presentation Date: 11.15.2016
Learning Outcomes(s): Participants will actively engage in the activity and
indicate an intent to change or enhance their practice by delivering care in accordance
with Managed Care Organization (MCO) requirements while incorporating best documentation practices in order
to ensure coverage and reduce days outstanding on agency claims.

is unique because we provide care not culture. Competency in the culture of people can broaden our perspective and improve the level of care currently provided.

The presentation is designed to help healthcare leaders develop knowledge, skills, and attitude to perform in a culturally sensitive society.

What’s now and what’s new?
Presentation Info:
TAHC&H Event Administrator Conference | Rich-Media Presentation Capture | Online On-Demand Access
Presentation Date | November 8, 2023
Program Description: What’s now and what’s new? The TNC is currently 17.5% of the Total Performance Score of VBP, but CMS is implementing drastic changes.
Even though CMS is omitting the TNC from its programs and replacing it with the Discharge Function score, the TNC scores are still important through payment year 2026. Now is the time to ramp up for
the first performance year for Discharge Function, so learn what your plan should be for 2024. ACH and ED Use claims data currently comprise 35% of your Total Performance Scores. Even though your
ACH and ED Use scores are being jettisoned in favor of the new PPH, the ACH and ED Use will still impact your payment until 2026. New to VBP are the PPH and the Discharged to Community (claims-based)
quality measures, which together will comprise 35% and will require some adjustments in your Performance Improvement Programs. PPH will include hospitalizations (both ACH and LTCH) and observation stays.
The DTC measure will include readmissions for up to 31 days after discharge. Lisa discusses what actions can be taken now to improve those numbers.

Program Description: Big changes are coming to VBP, and understanding the shift is crucial for your agency’s success.
This session dives into a side-by-side comparison of today’s measures versus the new ones coming in 2025 and reveals how you can maximize your Total Performance Score (TPS).
Did you know that three new measures will make up 55% of your TPS? The Discharge Function (DCF) score, based on GG items, is replacing the TNC and
increasing its impact from 17.5% to 20%, while the new Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations (PPH) will claim a huge 26% share of your score. Plus, Acute Care Hospitalization (ACH)
and ED Use are being dropped from Star Ratings, and the new Discharge to Community (DTC) measure, worth 9%, will track readmissions for up to 31 days after discharge from home health.
This session is packed with insights on what your agency should prioritize right now to stay competitive. Lisa breaks down actionable strategies to help you
boost performance on these new measures, reduce hospitalizations, and prepare your team for success in the next phase of VBP.

Program Description:
Major changes are on the horizon for Value-Based Purchasing (VBP), and staying ahead of the curve is essential for your agency?s success.
In this session, Lisa Selman-Holman breaks down the CY2026 Final Rule with a clear, side-by-side comparison of current versus upcoming measures - so you know exactly what's shifting and how to respond.
Discharge Function remains a heavy hitter, still accounting for 15% of the Total Performance Score (TPS), but CMS is reintroducing M1800 items for dressing and bathing - adding complexity and opportunity.
Meanwhile, HHCAHPS is significantly scaled back, and agencies excelling in potentially preventable hospitalizations (PPH) may be surprised by the new direction CMS is taking.
The Discharge to Community (DTC) measure is also gaining weight, increasing from 9% to 15% of the TPS.

Commercial bias may occur when a CNE activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices, services, software, hardware, etc.). This definition is not all inclusive and participants
may use their own interpretation in deciding if a presentation is biased. The ANCC COA is interested in the opinions and perceptions of participants at approved CNE activities,
especially in the presence of actual or perceived bias in continuing education. Therefore, ANCC invites participants to access their ANCC Accreditation Feedback Line to report any noted
bias or conflict of interest in the education activity.
