Implications for Agencies and the Hospice Community
Tuesday, April 11, 2023 | 12:00 – 1:30 PM EDT
In addition to routine annual payment changes, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) proposed fiscal year (FY) 2024 Hospice Payment Rule, issued on March 31, contains valuable updates on the Hospice Quality Reporting Program (HQRP). Perhaps most notable, the rule’s deep dive into utilization trends signals an intensified interest in hospice care patterns, potentially inappropriate behavior in the hospice sector, and program integrity concerns.
Join two of NAHC’s hospice experts as they detail proposed changes, including a new requirement that hospice certifying physicians be Medicare enrolled (or to have validly opted-out) and CMS’ Requests for Information on hospice utilization and health equity, and examine their potential impact on hospice practice going forward.
