9 States currently are affected by the CMS Value Based Purchasing demonstration project. This 5 year demonstration model is in its 3rd year and all indications are that it will be rolled out to many more if not all states.  This program has undergone several changes since its inception and more are expected.  This webinar will allow home health staff members to obtain information in order to evaluate where their agency would stand if Value Based Purchasing were happening in their state today and how to determine where you stand if you are in a VBP state today. VBP results from the first 2 years of the pilot will be reviewed and how VBP has affected the nation’s home health compare/star rating scores. Attend to learn what you need to do now in order to prepare and ensure you are one of excellent performing agencies. Directors, clinicians and quality review staff will not want to miss this session.
