In coordinating discharges, hospital clinicians have minimal information on care delivery in these settings. This knowledge gap is exacerbated by the disrupted continuum of patient care between acute care hospitals, SNFs, and HHAs. To address these challenges, hospital clinicians must understand how recent federal policies have impacted SNF and HHA care provision. The paper provides an overview of recent Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) policies and programs affecting SNFs and HHAs, including: (1) fee-for-service reimbursement reform (ie, Patient Driven Payment Model [PDPM] and the Patient Driven Groupings Model [PDGM]); (2) bundled payment programs; (3) accountable care organizations; (4) Medicare Advantage plans. Overall, this paper aims to help hospital clinicians stay informed about the evolving landscape of postacute care delivery by providing relevant information on how recent policy changes have impacted patient care.</p>","PeriodicalId":8313,"journal":{"name":"Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142131684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
