Description: The way in which home health agencies are paid for episodes of care in 2008 is a significant change – with every type of HHA experiencing reduced payment. But those with an acute understanding of the factors that effect payment calculations – from early to late episodes to new case-mix diagnosis groupings and therapy thresholds – will be able to best weather cash flow shifts. Get the key provisions of the final rule culled from nearly 400 pages of regulation to help you focus your re-engineering and training efforts, armed with the results of data modeling by the industry’s top benchmarking firm to pinpoint what the rules will mean to individual agencies and a real-world operational and financial management game plan.
