No leadership team can afford to overlook the public reporting and financial implications of their CAHPS Hospice Survey scores.

Let’s face it. Work can have challenges. Big ones. Everyone gets knocked down from time to time. “Getting up” is where success lies. So, get up and prepare to unlock your potential and become more resilient, effective, and successful in your professional life. Join this informative webinar to learn about the two key components of resilience and why it’s critical to develop both. You’ll learn essential strategies and get tools to enhance your resilience in the face of workplace challenges.
Compliance programs are a necessity! The home care, home health, and hospice industries are under increasing scrutiny by several federal regulators. The news media has identified many agencies with compliance and fraud issues. These agencies and leaders faced imprisonment, multiple million-dollar fines, and/or permanent loss of the ability to provide Medicare and Medicaid services. This webinar will address the importance of compliance programs, how to develop purposeful compliance programs, and the importance of staff education to help reduce the risk of noncompliance.
Part 3 of this three-part webinar series will dive into all the reports on which agencies are evaluated and measured. It will break down all the reports, the significance of each, and how to read them. Using the information provided, you will be able to identify whether your agency is at potential risk for a payment audit or at risk for payment reduction for missing key submission deadlines.
This webinar will cover all the business aspects of hospice that clinical management must know. It will review what impacts reimbursement, HQRP and reporting, payment models, and what is on the hospice horizon. This webinar will be key for all new clinical leadership as well as those who require a refresher related to reports such as CASPER, PEPPER, HCI, and Hospice Compare.
Based on data and research, hospice programs nationally are not good at serving the needs of people who are considered medium-to-high risk. In general, lower-risk individuals are the ones accessing bereavement services. Could that be because the “standard” services offered by most agencies just aren’t cutting it?
This webinar will look at ways to expand your programs and services. In some cases, it may just be a minor addition to what you are doing now. It will also explore services that are more likely to reach out and connect with those with higher-level needs. Join us to take a look at creative programming and services for both caregivers and the bereaved.
Prevention is the largest component of an effective infection prevention and control program. It is essential to protect hospice patients, families, and caregivers from avoidable infections, costly treatment, and pain. Every year, surveys show that breaches in infection prevention contribute to avoidable deficiencies for hospice agencies.
This session will offer guidance on how to prevent infections and explain the importance of tracking infections and interpreting agency-specific data to guide education for patients, caregivers, and staff. It will provide tips and tools for conducting competencies, providing education, and infection control tracking, and will include best practices pertaining to bag technique and hand hygiene.
This comprehensive webinar will illuminate the common pitfalls many hospices encounter in their operations and structural setups. Many issues can be clearly defined in your data. One example is not having a proper staffing model to fill positions with the appropriate resources and talent. Another issue that is equally impactful is having too many staff. By identifying these problem-prone areas, hospice administrators, professionals, and stakeholders can enhance their services, ensure compliance, and improve patient care.
Attendees will gain valuable insights into avoiding these errors and implementing best practices for a more efficient, effective hospice environment.
This presentation will go through the governing body’s regulatory requirements. It will address required members, the legal authority, agency management, operational and quality assessment, and performance improvement responsibilities. Areas for potential gaps will be highlighted to evaluate the body’s effectiveness. Sample meeting minutes will be covered to help agencies identify what surveyors review during survey.
Discover how accountability can positively impact the workplace, driving higher performance, better collaboration, and a stronger team dynamic. Practical feedback models designed to effectively hold others accountable will be introduced, ensuring that everyone contributes to a culture of excellence and continuous improvement. Whether you're a leader aiming to elevate your team's performance or an individual wanting to enhance your own accountability, this webinar will offer valuable insights and tools for success.
