Program Description: There are many new business practices taking shape in the home care/hospice industry. Outsourcing is one business practice used by companies to reduce costs or improve efficiency by shifting tasks, operations, jobs or processes to an external contracted third party for a significant period of time. This same process of centralization is utilized by many companies internally to achieve the same outcome. Home care/hospice agencies must enact smart change management techniques to prepare for this new practice.

Program Learning Outcome:

  • Participants will actively engage in a discussion on outsourcing and centralizing operations to reduce costs and improve efficiency in home care agencies.
