Medicare is at it again! Effective January 1, 2015, all home health agencies that submit OASIS assessment data will have to do several things differently. The new OASIS C1 data sets are effective January 1, 2015 and home health agencies are required to use the new OASIS C1 data set for the OASIS submissions. In addition, all OASIS assessment data will be submitted to CMS via the national OASIS Assessment Submission and Processing (ASAP) system. With the implementation of the OASIS ASAP system, Home Health Agencies will no longer submit OASIS assessment data to CMS via their state databases. In addition, there is a new and updated home health payment grouper to accommodate the new OASIS C1 assessments! This is a lot of change to deal with at the same time. These changes will have a profound impact on your agency?s compliance and finances. You need to be prepared. At this informative webinar, you will learn all you need to know about OASIS C1 to prepare your organization for the changes ahead.
