Description:

The Patient Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) will go into effect January 1, 2020. This is the most massive change to the home care industry reimbursement structure since the introduction of the current Prospective Payment System (PPS) in October 2000. The new payment model dramatically impacts agency operations, processes and performance. Agencies must develop and implement plans to successfully transition to PDGM. This workshop will discuss key areas, strategies and processes in preparing an agency for PDGM. This workshop will have a focus on changes to the 30-day payment model which will bring significant back office changes, specific to the claims processing and collections, including payment adjustments and proposed implementation of the Notice of Admission.
