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.
