Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations (PPH) is shaking up the home health industry, replacing Acute Care Hospitalization (ACH) for star ratings in 2024 and becoming a cornerstone of Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) in 2025. Even more critical, PPH accounts for 26% of your Total Performance Score under HHVBP, making it a metric your agency must master to stay competitive. Yet, many organizations find themselves stuck—unsure of how PPH is calculated, confused by its risk adjustment model, and struggling to keep patients out of the hospital.

Join McBee experts Michelle Horner and Karen Tibbs as they simplify the complexities, reveal proven strategies to improve your outcomes, and help your agency turn PPH into a strength rather than a challenge.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the Evolution of PPH: Learn how PPH has replaced ACH in star ratings, its upcoming role in HHVBP, and why this shift matters for your agency.
  • Demystify the Metric: Gain clarity on how PPH is calculated, including an in-depth look at the risk adjustment model used by CMS.
  • Explore Root Causes of Hospitalizations: Identify common reasons patients return to the hospital and how your organization can address these issues effectively.
  • Implement Effective Strategies: Discover actionable strategies to improve care coordination, patient education, and clinical interventions to reduce hospitalizations and excel in PPH.
  • Drive Quality and Financial Outcomes: Learn how improving your PPH metric can enhance patient care, boost star ratings, and maximize HHVBP performance.

This webinar will equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to tackle PPH head-on and position your agency for success in this new era of home health quality measures.
