We are all looking for ways to reduce ED visits, cost of care, and hospitalizations – meaning positive outcomes for our patients while performing at our best for HH-VBP scoring. One of the easiest ways to do this is by ensuring patients that would benefit from a flu shot, receive a flu shot. Lend Your Voice to Protect Medicare Home Health for Ohioans – Take action by August 29 – Template provided. Home and community-based care is a proven solution to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs. The new CMS proposed rule includes policies that would reduce payments to home health agencies nationally by over $1 billion dollars in 2026. No fluff – just answers. In response to a surge of suspicious communications sent to members recently, Katie Eisel, Payer Relations Director at OCHN, has written up a detailed safety toolkit to help everyone keep their agency and patient data safe and secure. The Ohio Council for Home Care & Hospice has joined the National Alliance for Care at Home to submit a statement to the federal administration in response to the OMB Deregulation RFI, which seeks to reduce burdensome requirements and better streamline regulations to promote a more effective and efficient healthcare system. This year marks a powerful milestone for the Ohio Council for Home Care & Hospice — 60 years of supporting the people and agencies who care for Ohio’s most vulnerable residents!
