PDGM, hospice carve-in, RCD, U-PAC, VBP, rural add-on, and CMPs are just a part of the landscape for home health services and hospice in 2019. Add to that portfolio such matters as Medicaid per capita caps, “Medicare for All,” continued growth in Medicare Advantage enrollment, minimum wage increases, regulatory burden reduction efforts, and a wide range of health care delivery and payment innovations and your head begins to spin. All this and more is on the agenda for 2019. This is a time of great opportunities in health care with a primary focus on community-based care. This traditional opening session brings Congress, the White House and federal agencies to the forefront with up-to-the-minute details on the legislative, regulatory, and legal actions. The forecast for the future is very promising!
