The Healthcare Provider Solutions team is pleased to announce that we have acquired the home care and hospice coding and clinical consulting provider, 5 Star Consultants LLC.

We are extremely proud to welcome 5 Star Consultants’ industry-leading coding, OASIS review, and clinical consulting team to HPS. Together with their knowledge and experience, HPS is a stronger full-service home care and hospice resource for both current and new clients.

Through this acquisition, HPS continues to provide excellence in home care and hospice billing and clinical consulting in addition to offering the same reputable coding services that 5 Star Consultants is known for, helping agencies improve the quality of their financial health.

Correct coding has a direct impact on agencies’ financial health. Thanks to the addition of our new coding department, experienced specialists—including certified RNs—are now available through HPS to ensure accuracy and clinical compliance, both of which have a direct impact on appropriate reimbursement.

Home Care Coding & Review Capabilities

    • Comprehensive Review of Start of Care, Recertification, and Resumption
    • OASIS and Clinical Documentation Recommendations
    • Collaborate with Clinicians to Assign Appropriate Patient Diagnosis Codes

Hospice Coding & Review Capabilities

    • Complex Hospice Coding Assistance
    • Review and Recommendations for Start of Care Documentation
    • Comprehensive Recertification Review

In addition to our billing and operations services, our clinical and regulatory departments will now also be able to ensure that regulatory standards are met in terms of coding, QAPI, certification, and outcomes monitoring. The educational component is a key service offering that empowers agencies to truly thrive. Our experienced clinical team offers structured educational programs to increase agency competency on QI, QAPI, regulations, laws, general coding, assist in accreditation, and more.

 

At HPS, our goal is to provide the best possible home care and hospice resources to help agencies thrive. By acquiring 5 Star Consultants’ team, we are able to continue offering skilled, US-based consultants. We look forward to being able to provide these new services within coding and OASIS review to both current and new clients, while expanding clinical services we already provide.
