Sessions present actionable strategies with a value-based lens in the following areas: required staffing, infrastructure, and data; patient identification; cost-effective management of medications and conditions commonly found in HBPC patients (e.g., dementia, CHF); quality measurement and reducing gaps in care; risk adjustment models, including Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) coding; and demonstrating the value of HBPC when negotiating with payers.

Learning Objectives

    • Provide high-quality, cost-effective patient care and successfully manage conditions of specific concerns in value-based payment arrangements, including dementia, congestive heart failure, and polypharmacy.
    • Manage transitions of care for homebound patients within the domains of accountability, communication, assessing needs and goals, medication management, and safety.
