1 Private Duty Accreditation National Association for Home Care and Hospice Monday Feb PAT DREA, COO VISITING ANGELS- CORPORATE OFFICES BRITTNEI SALERNO, PRESIDENT LA JOLLA NURSES HOME CARE LUCY ANDREWS, CEO AT YOUR SERVICE HOME CARE History of Accreditation for Post Hospital Services Accreditation entities grew out of hospital accreditation (JCAHO, CHAPS, ACHC) Joint Commission launched it s hospital accreditation in Nursing Standards for Home Care Aides were launched in the early 90s Medicare Home Care Accreditation was launched in the early to mid 90s Home Care Accreditation programs grew from Medicare Home Health model. NAHC launched CHCE for Home Care Executives
2 NAHC Home Care Accreditation NAHC instituted the Certified Home Care & Hospice Executive (CHCE) program under the Home Care University (1999) NAHC recognized that home care accreditation programs grew out of Medicare Home Care Standards and saw the advantage of private duty accreditation. Cost of Private Duty Accreditation was challenging for PD agencies to afford In 2012 PDHCA initiated the development of Private Duty Accreditation program The standards are private duty relevant, the process is user friendly, accreditation can be achieved remotely using available technology, and at a reasonable fee. Accreditation is granted for 2 years. One year renewals will be provided upon request for a small fee. We are happy to announce that after 4 years of development the accreditation will be made available to Private Duty Home Care agencies during Benefits of Accreditation Become a Provider of Choice Differentiate yourself from other Private Duty companies Becoming an accredited agency illustrates your commitment to becoming a provider of choice, and ensures that your clients are receiving the best care possible. Gain greater consumer recognition and trust Accreditation helps strengthen consumer confidence in your organization as a provider of quality services. Demonstrate the value of your organization Consumers and health care providers are in search of reputable providers of home care that offer the best quality care and demonstrate compliance with national standards. 2
3 Benefits of NAHC Accreditation NAHC accreditation recognizes performance according to high standards that are specifically applicable to private duty agencies In non licensed states, accredited agencies will be able to receive approval as a provider of services. Payers will accept NAHC Accreditation agencies can become approved as care providers under payers such as LTC Insurance, ACOs, Workers Comp, and Government Payers. Accreditation allows agencies to attract prospective employees who appreciate the prestige and quality that comes with this designation. Accreditation places you in a much stronger position to compete in your marketplace. Accreditation and Deemed Status Deemed Status is the accreditation process that demonstrates that the agency meets or exceeds licensing or payer standards. Some states are requiring accreditation in lieu of surveys (FL and NJ) More states will look to accreditation to reduce survey costs as they face internal budget constraints. Achieving accreditation puts you ahead of the curve as these cost saving trends progress in states across the country. 3
