home health care oasis reviews
CMS OASIS home health guidance supports interdisciplinary collaboration that holds the key to ensure optimized scoring, outcomes, and revenue. Given that each discipline has their area of expertise, collaboration can more accurately score the OASIS items as each discipline sees the patient from a different perspective and focus. When we perform home health OASIS reviews, we utilize our therapy background in accurately researching documentation that supports appropriate scoring. This in turn provides opportunity for revenue gain and creates improved star ratings in preparation for home health value-based purchasing (HHVBP). On average, we help home health agencies save approximately $2,000 per 60-day care episode.
