Has your agency conducted a detailed assessment plan for entering managed markets? Now is the time to consider the opportunities presented from a continuously changing and growing hospice landscape.

  • Outline the contracting process
  • Differentiate between good and bad contracting opportunities

WEBINAR DETAILS

CMS continues to move towards involving hospice care in value-based payment programs, such as the forthcoming 2021 Medicare Advantage (MA) carve-in. This is considered to be the most impactful value-based initiative for hospice. The details of how the carve-in will work are not yet defined, however it’s anticipated that the MA plans will not limit hospice care to the last six months of life. CMS’s intention is to increase access to hospice services and facilitate coordination between hospice providers and clinicians, thus incorporating hospices into an integrated care continuum. CMS does not intend to eliminate the Medicare hospice benefit’s per diem payment model. This presents opportunities for agencies to enter value-based payment programs.

Is your agency prepared for the opportunities with managed markets? What about value-based payment programs? The contracting process? What are your managed markets strategic plans? What value propositions make contracting with you a MUST? This webinar is designed to help your agency answer those questions and understand the dos and don’ts of successful managed care contracting. Due diligence before entering a contract is critical to success.

Attendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits.
