The home health industry is once again in line for a major regulatory change. This time, it’s the looming expansion of the Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) Model, which has been active in nine demonstration states since 2016.
As part of its most recent home health proposed payment rule, the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) called for a nationwide HHVBP rollout, with the first performance year for most agencies being 2022. Under the likely expansion, agencies will compete on several performance measures against peers across the U.S. for a maximum bonus — or penalty — of 5%.
In this HHCN+ report, Home Health Care News breaks down the mechanisms of HHVBP, assesses the model’s potential upside and summarizes proven success strategies.
