PHA Lunch & Learn – RubyWell: Continuing Home Health, Family Caregivers, and the Law
Event Details
Webinar Details:
Date: Wednesday, December 4
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM (ET)
Topic: RubyWell: Continuing Home Health, Family Caregivers, and the Law
Summary:
The Jimmo v. Sebelius case was a landmark lawsuit that resulted in a significant clarification of Medicare coverage standards. The case challenged the unofficial “improvement standard” used by Medicare, which required beneficiaries to show medical or functional improvement to qualify for coverage of certain types of care, particularly skilled nursing care and physical, occupational, and speech therapy. This case has had profound implications for patients with chronic conditions, disabilities, or those who have plateaued in their treatment.
Key areas to explore:
- What has Jimmo vs. Sebelius really meant for home health? And what does it portend for the future?
- Financial incentives and dis-incentives in home health.
- Managed care vs. fee for service
- Regulatory & Compliance requirements
- The potential role for family caregivers.
