"This is an important product for home health agencies," said William A. Dombi, Vice President of Law at NAHC. "With the changes starting in January 2008 of both OASIS and PPS (Home Health Prospective Payment Systems), it will be imperative for agencies to have quality OASIS data."

"Quality OASIS data starts with clinicians being properly trained to make skilled assessments," said Mary St. Pierre, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs at NAHC. One reason NAHC decided to partner with OASIS NP developers Melanie R. Duerr, RN, MS, ANP, Vice President of Certified Services, VNA of Hudson Valley in Tarrytown, NY and Kathleen R. O'Donnell, BS, CPA, Professor, Onondaga Community College in Syracuse, NY, "is because the interactive teaching hybrid can be recycled to incorporate CMS updates seamlessly in an ever-changing environment and because of Duerr and O'Donnell's commitment to helping home health agencies reach their goals of providing excellent care to patients."
