Health care regulations continue to change, and your home health agency (HHA) faces additional cuts to Medicare payment rates in 2012. There also are changes in the prospective payment system (PPS) case mix model. This complimentary webinar defines the changes for 2012 and identifies strategies to help HHAs prepare for these rate reductions and other PPS changes.
