[3053] Clinical Services Management: What Works to Improve Home Health Value-Based Purchasing Performance? Education-Training Credits: 1.25 Hr(s) HCSSA Administrator/Alternate Summary: Clinical practices that make a difference in HHVBP scoring. HCSSA Topic(s) Addressed: §558.259[d][4]agency responsibilities §558.260[a][3]basic principles of management in a licensed health-related setting §558.260[a][5]quality improvement §558.260[a][7]financial management Faculty: Melinda Gaboury Program Description: With Home Health Value Based Purchasing (HHVBP) going strong in the 9 demonstration states it is a forgone conclusion that HHVBP will become a nationwide reality. The core goal of HHVBP is to reach the best practical patient outcome. HHVBP measures focus on clinical outcomes as central components of a performance measurement system. For many years, HHAs have worked to achieve improved patient outcomes, but there was no direct connection to payment. With HHVBP, clinical success for payments can translate to higher Medicare reimbursement. This program is designed to explore the clinical practices that make a difference in HHVBP scoring. When clinical practices work for patients, HHVBP makes them work for a HHAs bottom-line as well. This session will: Identify areas most susceptible to patient outcome improvement Recognize best practices in clinical operations that impact HHVBP scores Identify practical steps towards successful implementation of HHVBP best practices Presentation Date: 08.10.2017 Learning Outcomes(s): Participants will actively engage in the learning activity and indicate an intent to change or enhance their practice by recognizing best practices in clinical operations that impact client outcomes and home health Value-Based Purchasing scores.

Details of the Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Model – Hospice Benefit Component. Presentation Info: TAHC&H Virtual Event | Winter Conference | Recorded for On-Demand Access Presentation Date | February 9, 2021 Program Description: This presentation covers the details of the Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Model – Hospice Benefit Component. Medicare Advantage (MA) has long had coverage for home health patients, but there has never been coverage for Hospice under the MA benefit. VBID is a demonstration that will begin January 1, 2021. There are 9 Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAO) that will be participating and have coverage in multiple states. In addition to Hospice care there is an expansion of Palliative Care services that will be offered to patients through the MAO. CMS is testing how the hospice benefit component can improve beneficiary care through greater care coordination, reduced fragmentation, and transparency in line with recommendations by the Office of Inspector General (OIG), the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC) and others. CMS will require that MAOs provide beneficiaries with broad access to the complete original Medicare hospice benefit. This presentation covers all known aspects of the demonstration and prepares hospices for the reality that Medicare Advantage is now in the Hospice world.
