Branch Offices/Multiple Locations/Corporate Entities: Survey Implications for Home Health and Hospices
Thursday, March 28, 2019; 2:00-3:00 pm eastern
Program Description:
Survey deficiencies have increased in both home health and hospice, a trend related to branch offices/multiple locations and how operations are handled. There are also increased survey deficiencies related to how home health agencies and hospices with corporate entities, whether large or small, are handling daily operations.
These deficiencies are often at the condition level and can come as a surprise to the provider, since many have been operating in much the same way for years without deficiencies. This webinar will review the practices that are causing the deficiencies, discuss why they are now being viewed as a deficient practice, and tell you how to revise practices to minimize the risk of survey deficiencies. Examples from actual surveys will be shared.
