CMS Wants Candid Feedback On VBP Training So Far
Published on Fri Feb 17, 2023
You now have a chance to give CMS a piece of your mind about how they’ve conducted Home Health Value-Based Purchasing training so far. A “brief 15-minute survey [is] designed to learn more about your home health agency’s (HHA’s) experience with the resources provided for the expanded HHVBP Model and identify areas for future outreach and education,” CMS says in a message to providers. One or more people from your agency can participate, CMS notes. “We would like to hear from anyone actively involved in your HHA’s expanded HHVBP Model efforts,” it says. The tool is anonymous. The survey is at www.research.net/r/expandedHHVBPModelsurvey.
