WEBINAR DETAILS
As a result of hospice integrity mandates, CMS is
launching the Special Focus Program to monitor agencies identified as poor
performers based on the selected quality indicators. Hospices that are chosen
will be under additional oversight, including every-six-months surveys, to
enable continuous improvement. Enforcement remedies for noncompliant hospices could
include termination from the Medicare program. This session will take a deep dive
into the criteria used to calculate the scores that determine which hospices
are subject to these reviews and details on how a hospice will graduate or be
terminated from the program. Don’t miss this detailed session.
