Event Details

Overview: Home health leaders face evolving CMS expectations that affect quality performance, Medicare payment, and agency operations. This one-hour webinar will connect the latest CMS guidance with key provisions of the CY 2027 Home Health FINAL Rule, clearly distinguishing current requirements from proposals to watch. We will examine the nationwide Medicare enrollment moratorium and its implications for agency growth, ownership changes, and compliance planning. Participants will also explore expanded Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) updates, including changes to quality measures and the implications of the revised HHCAHPS survey. Leave with practical priorities for strengthening reporting accuracy, focusing quality improvement efforts, and preparing your agency for what comes next.

Objectives:

  1. Differentiate current CMS home health requirements from key CY 2027 proposed and FINAL payment, quality reporting, and provider enrollment changes.
  2. Identify the implications of the nationwide Medicare enrollment moratorium for new enrollments, certain ownership changes, and agency growth planning.
  3. Prioritize agency actions that address HHVBP measure updates, HHCAHPS changes, and accurate quality reporting to support improved performance and payment outcomes.
