Home Health: Medicare ‘Thresholds’
Home health administrators and managers keep a close eye on the ‘thresholds’ of Medicare Plan of Cares. Calculating the number of visits per discipline, the total number of visits within a Plan of Care and keeping track of the number of visits that have already been completed is a daunting and time-consuming task. Pariox presents home health workers with peace of mind when it comes to ‘threshold’ calculations. Pariox offers a home health software solution by which one can simply select the appropriate Medicare Certification Period to instantly see in 1 snapshot:
1) The number of home health visits in each discipline’s Plan of Care
2) The number of home health visits within each discipline’s Plan of Care that have already been completed
3) The TOTAL number of home health visits in the entire (including all disciplines) Plan of Care
4) The TOTAL number of home health visits within the entire Plan of Care that have already been completed
This automatic ‘threshold’ calculation feature has saved Pariox software clients both time and money. It also serves as a basis for case conferencing between disciplines to optimize number of visits and optimize outcomes at the same time.
