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.

Presentation Info: TAHC&H Event | 55th Annual Conference | Rich-Media Presentation Capture | Online On-Demand Access Presentation Date | September 10, 2024 Program Description: Volume to Value (V2V) reforms have rewired the Home Health model in terms of care development and delivery since the introduction of PDGM. Along these lines, Value-based Purchasing was installed for Home Health, connecting payment levels to outcomes for the first time in our industry. A review of the requirements for the VBP bonus reveals outcomes rarely seen to date in HHCAPS, Readmission, Timeliness, and Clinical Outcomes. In addition, HH Readmissions must be in the single-digits if a Provider hopes to qualify for the VBP bonus, and most Providers post readmit levels in the mid-teens.

Accountability seems difficult. Clear directions are misinterpreted. Everyone works harder but doesn’t seem to really be in sync. If this sounds familiar, guess what, you’re normal. Many leaders and organizations have struggled with these challenges. But they found a path and a solution. Does your flywheel drive strategic direction, decisions, and priorities? Are all your “people” issues solved? Do your employees really care about the business? Does everyone really fight for the greater good?

As thousands of business leaders have discovered, the key to continued growth, better outcomes, bigger profits, and fewer frustrations is here: managing your business so it does not manage you.

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 Hospice Program Description: This program 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 until 2021 when the VBID demonstration began to include Hospice. There have been many changes to the Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAO) participating in 2024 as the demonstration has now been extended through 2030. The differences in coverage for an in-network vs. out-of-network provider will be reviewed and the allowance of MAO plans to force patients to elect IN-NETWORK ONLY. CMS requires that MAOs provide beneficiaries with broad access to the complete original Medicare hospice benefit. This program covers all known aspects of the demonstration and will prepare hospices for the reality that Medicare Advantage is now in the Hospice world to stay.
