Vance, OTR, Supervising Consultant, BKD, LLP, Springfield, MO Webinar 1 Patient Centered, Interdisciplinary Care Planning Tuesday, April 17, 2018 * 2:00 3:30 p.m. ET Webinar Overview: The stated principles for transforming the CoP include using a patientcentered, interdisciplinary approach that recognizes the contributions of various skilled professionals and their interactions with each other to meet the patient's needs. This session will be exploring core competencies that all clinicians should possess, regardless of their discipline, to meet the needs of the 21st century health system: provide patient centered care; work in interdisciplinary teams; employ evidence based practice; apply quality improvement, and; utilize informatics. The session will continue with strategies for interdisciplinary collaboration and how they can result in better outcomes of patient centered care. 1. Describe the required standards of (c) and in the new CoPs 2. Review best practice strategies to incorporate into agency care planning 3. Outline a structure and process that operationalizes these standards Target Audience: Home health administrators, clinical managers, and clinicians Webinar 2 An Integrated, Living QAPI Program Tuesday, April 24, 2018 * 2:00 3:30 p.m. ET Webinar Overview: (c), and in the new CoPs can be operationalized within a structure and process that integrates these standards within an agency cost efficiently. This session will present strategies that objectify processes in practice and documentation to address these requirements. Care plan outcomes are targeted through an embedded QAPI program that loops back around with carefully constructed Plans of Action intended to influence targeted outcomes before they occur. This session will also outline the metrics to 1

Describe the required standards of Quality Assessment and Performance Improvement (QAPI) 2. Outline a structure and process that operationalizes these standards in an integrated method 3. List metrics quantifying improvement in outcomes and lowered costs with this approach Target Audience: Home health administrators, clinical managers, and clinicians Webinar 3 Changes in Therapy Approach to Home Health Tuesday, May 1, 2018 * 2:00 3:30 p.m. ET Webinar Overview: CMS plans changes to the PPS case mix system to rely on patient characteristics to set payment for therapy and non therapy services and should no longer use the number of therapy visits as a payment factor. The practice patterns and therapy compensation creep associated with the current PPS methodology will fit poorly with a case mix system not relying on a therapy visit number. However, practice pattern changes do not occur as abruptly as payment changes. This session will review the proposed new Home Health Groupings Model and the impact on therapy practice. We will then apply reasonable and necessary plans of care to typical home health conditions and link them to the outcomes agencies strive to achieve. Participants will learn to prepare changes in practice and to demonstrate the value therapy services can bring to the home health agency. 1. Describe the changes in the Proposed Groupings Model for HH PPS 2. Review the impact on therapy from eliminating thresholds in the PPS case mix 3. Explain how reasonable and necessary therapy plans of care should directly relate to outcomes home health agencies need Target Audience: Clinical managers, Clinicians Webinar 4 The Value of Remote Patient Monitoring to Outcomes Tuesday, May 8, 2018 * 2:00 3:30 p.m. ET 2

3 Webinar Overview: CMS recently pledged more support for telehealth in upcoming payment rules. Longstanding advocates have complained about the lack of coverage for telehealth and the impact it has on the home health industry. The focus will be on how to leverage technology to improve access to care. The 2018 physician fee schedule included new billing codes for telehealth, including chronic care management and data analysis collected by remote monitoring. Regardless of specific coverage for remote patient monitoring, there is great value in the service for improved outcomes and reduced cost. This webinar provides insights into one remote patient monitoring call center. We will review the relationship of the call center with the agency, its nurses, the patients, and the value it brings to improved patient outcomes. Karen Vance will be joined by Karen Thomas from Advanced Telehealth for this webinar. 1. Explain the history of telehealth s role in home health to date and recent CMS announcements for coverage 2. Describe the difference between telehealth and remote patient monitoring 3. Define the relationships between the call center and the agency 4.
