Location: Webinar

Registration: Online | Registration Form

This workshop will take agencies through the significant updates to the PDGM reimbursement model and move through all the aspects of home health reimbursement.

PDGM has brought many changes to home health and 2023 will continue to keep agencies on their toes while adapting fully to the model, including dealing with the NOA.  There will be a discussion of Pre-Bill claim reviews and the significance of conducting them. The impact of OASIS & Coding and medical review programs has the potential to more directly impact reimbursement than some of the other aspects of PDGM and this workshop will get you up to date on all that.  2023 also brings the implementation of Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) and OASIS-E.  This workshop will hit the highlights of both as they impact reimbursement.  In addition to Traditional Medicare, the Medicare Advantage plans have become a major part of home health reimbursement, and this workshop will take you through some of the detail aspects of getting what you need in order to get paid.  Medical Review has emerged as one of the greatest concerns for home health.  This workshop will take you through the contractor asks and dig into the reasons behind review.  PEPPER reports are a large part of the data used to target agencies and this workshop will give you an up to date review of how to analyze your current PEPPER.  Whether you are a biller, collector or Administrator, this workshop is just what is needed to get you up to date on all things Home Health Reimbursement.
