Overview
The few, specific OASIS-D1 items that affect payment under the PDGM payment model are a gold mine for securing fair payment. That is, if OASIS-completing clinicians are OASIS-accuracy-savvy. Informed clinicians will capture a patient’s full impairment at Start of Care and capture changes, as well as status at discharge. Result - fair payment each 30-day period and stellar scores on Home Health Compare.
Uninformed clinicians may fail, causing the agency to leave deserved money on the table as well as to appear sub-standard on Home Health Compare. Your clinicians and leaders need this education. Give them the tools they need to make your agency succeed.
Why you should Attend
Failing to invest in education about accurately capturing full impairment of patient functionality is docking your own pay through negligence. Agencies need this information to ensure fair payment as well as to capture improvement for quality reporting on the Home Health Compare. Website. Further, if the agency is operating under value-based purchasing, botching the data in the functionality items of OASIS-D1 lowers payment in still different ways. Everyone needs this information. Don’t miss out!
