Does your strategic growth plan position your agency as a partner in preferred provider networks? Does your agency have the knowledge and capabilities to offer “value-based care”? An aging population, shifting reimbursement models, increases in chronic disease states, and new care delivery models that extend beyond hospitals to post-acute-care providers are demanding the implementation of preferred provider networks. Simultaneously, value-based care and new payment models incentivize both acute- and post-acute-care providers to focus on greater coordination of care that emphasizes quality, cost effectiveness, and patient experience. This webinar will explain the benefits and requirements of value-based care providers. Learn the steps, data requirements, and other considerations to become and remain a preferred provider in a network that offers value-based care. One- and two-sided risk payment models and how to prepare your agency for participation in alternative payment models will also be addressed.

Noncompliance with HIPAA email and text rules can result in costly fines, failed communications, and compromised electronic protected health information (ePHI).
Are your hospice or home care communications with patients and other internal and external parties HIPAA compliant? Do you understand and follow related laws, including the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)? Have you implemented annual audits, policies and procedures, training programs, and technology tools to ensure electronic messages reflect HIPAA’s use, privacy, and security rules? Do you require business associates and their subcontractors to adhere to a written HIPAA-specific Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?
