(2020 AM) 106. VNA 2.020: Journey to PDGM and Beyond is proudly presented to you by National Association for Home Care & Hospice. Thank you. We hope that you enjoy your course.
Description:
As a very large agency with a wide-spread territory, the implications of the PDGM imperative led to a de-centralization of our care management. The self-contained PODs we developed were designed with all care management in mind; including tasks previously managed in A/R, UR/QI, and Scheduling. New roles to support Clinical Managers were designed, as well as guidelines for the field staff to utilize in collaboration with the team manager with regard to care management in general. In the making of the new (thus 2.020) organization we also kept our Value-Based imperatives in place and strived to maintain or improve upon our 4.5 Star rating. We have been incorporating Triple Aim concepts since the inception of the ACA, the skill sets implied were a definite plus as we worked to roll-out these latest changes. In many ways developing skill sets to align with the Triple Aim concepts will continue to provide us with the tools we need to succeed in PDGM - and beyond.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe how the Triple Aim, Value-Based, Conditions of Participation and PDGM imperatives were cohesively integrated and applied to the VNA 2.020 model;
- Explain the clinical leadership team's research and initiatives that led to successful buy-in and silo-disruption in a large home health organizations' efforts toward inter-departmental cross-training and implementation of the new care model;
- Outline how the organization demonstrated through the redesign of their success in attaining effective home health resource management resulting in higher quality care, lower cost, and improved patient and employee satisfaction.
