Presentation Date: August 27, 2025
Program Description:
The Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) model for 2025 places significant emphasis on three critical quality measures:
the Discharge Function Score, Discharge to Community, and Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations (PPH). Together, these metrics account
for 55% of the HHVBP performance score, underscoring their impact on agency outcomes. The July IPR was the first to provide data on one of
the new 2025 outcomes—Discharge Function, and the year is already half over! This session will provide a comprehensive overview of these measures,
their calculation methodologies, and actionable strategies for improving performance. Gain insights into leveraging OASIS accuracy,
care planning, and staff engagement to optimize these outcomes and secure success under the evolving HHVBP model.

Bias, as defined by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation (ANCC COA/LSNA) is the tendency or inclination to cause partiality, favoritism, or influence.
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.
