CMS announced a webinar on Wednesday, March 29 at 1:30 p.m. ET, where experts will provide an overview of several provisions from the CY 2023 HH PPS final rule related to behavior changes, the construction of 60-day episodes, and payment rate development for CY 2023.

Further details and materials are forthcoming. LeadingAge encourages all home health members to register for this webinar in order to better understand CMS’ rational for the nearly 8% cut proposed in last year’s rule. As legislatively required, LeadingAge expects CMS to release data for the stakeholder community to utilize in analyzing the payment system no later than February 28, 2023.

LeadingAge is also convening a work group to review the data and its impact on patients served by non-profit, mission driven agencies. If you are interested in supporting this effort please email Katy Barnett at kbarnett@leadingage.org.
