PDGM – National Summits

The PDGM 2020 National Summits Are Now the PDGM 2020 Virtual Summits!
Key Insights, Best Practices & Lessons Learned

Intensive, Full-Day Educational Summits

April 28 & April 29, 2020 | VIRTUAL

Last year, the National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC) provided thousands of home health leaders across the country with the knowledge they needed to ensure their agencies made a smooth transition to the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM), the biggest change to home health payment in the 21^st century.

With PDGM now impacting agencies, NAHC has once again assembled a team of experts focus on lessons learned; what’s working or not working and what some agencies are doing to thrive and how others can learn from them.

"Now is the time to dig into the proposed PDGM model, identifying key drivers for your success in 2020. Evaluating your financial net impact is one thing – knowing what to do about it is another! Preparing your operations and clinical modeling now will be key to your success under the PDGM. As an industry, we concurrently are moving toward escalating Value Based Payment at the same time. Learning how to optimize quality at the lowest cost will be crucial for success within the PDGM payment reform as well as advancing population health initiatives." -- Cindy Campbell RN, BSN, MHA - Healthcare Informatics, COQS, Director Operational Consulting, Fazzi, Inc.
