2023 is in full swing and so is HHVBP. The 2023 Home Health Final Rule replaced the term baseline year with Model baseline year and HHA baseline year and set that year to be 2022 for both if the agency was Medicare certified prior to January 1, 2022. The baseline data is still being gathered and calculated by CMS and will not be available until later this year. Even though the data is not available, agencies are already being measured on CY2023 performance. How you perform this year will affect your reimbursement for all Medicare FFS claims in CY2025. It is imperative that your agency stay informed on HHVBP and educate your staff to arm them with the tools to be successful. Let MAC Legacy help you with everything related to HHVBP.
