Presents its June Webinar:
"Using the Medicare Hospital Readmission Reduction Program to sell more Private Pay Home Care"
June 27, 2013
4:00 pm Eastern
With Rich Chesney and Stephen Tweed
One of the important features of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (aka Health Care Reform or “Obamacare”) is the Medicare Hospital Readmission Reduction Program. This is a program that provides financial penalties for hospitals that have too many patients readmitted within 30 days of discharge.
Two of the biggest contributors to hospital readmission for patients are medication compliance and physician follow up visits. These are two things that can be positively influenced by private duty home care. In this interactive web conference, you’ll get a much clearer picture about how to approach hospitals about making referrals to private pay home care.
Objectives: As a result of participating in this live web conference, you will be able to…
1. Discuss the Medicare Hospital Readmission Reduction Program
2. Get the information you need about your local hospitals and their readmission rates
3. Develop a focused strategy to sell home care services to your local hospitals
Free Bonus: Everyone who registers for this live web conference will receive a free sample Hospital Readmission Report
