Chris Attaya, Vice President of Product Strategy from SHP, and Sue Payne, VP & Chief Clinical Officer from Corridor, will review how agency outcomes affect star ratings under the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM).

Case studies will be presented focusing on care of the patient with a specific primary diagnosis and differences between caring for the patient under the prospective payment system (PPS) versus PDGM.

Key areas of focus:

• Managing inappropriate low-utilization payment adjustments (LUPAs) under PDGM
• Cost effective approaches for improving functional status of patients
• Exploring some of the PDGM analytics in preparing for the new Model
