Risk and Reward: Risk Management for Operational Excellence and Sustainability of HaH

The Hospital at Home Users Group, in partnership with the American Academy of Home Care Medicine, is pleased to present our latest webinar for hospital and system leaders interested in learning about the opportunities and challenges associated with providing acute care in the home. Delivering acute care in the home offers great benefit to patients and providers, but these benefits are not without risk. To ensure program sustainability and operational excellence, HaH programs must prepare to meet the unique challenges of the home setting and align to evolving standards and best practices in patient care, risk management and organizational governance. Gregory Snyder, MD, MBA, will moderate a panel of HaH leaders and risk management experts in a discussion of five core enterprise risk management categories in HaH – clinical, emergency preparedness, technology, operational, and legal/regulatory. They will discuss how programs can proactively address these domains as concerns arise in scaling programs to ensure the highest level of care and safety for patients and providers. For background on this important topic, please see: “Hospital at Home: Navigating Risk Outside the Traditional Hospital Setting,” a white paper from the American Society for Health Care Risk Management and co-authored by Dr. Snyder and others.

Caregiver Training Services in Practice: Utilization, Impact, and Implementation

Medicare’s Caregiver Training Services (CTS) reimburse certain providers for delivering structured training and education to family caregivers when those skills are necessary for the patient’s treatment plan. These codes represent a new avenue for caregiver support and are beginning to be implemented across healthcare systems. This session will examine how these efforts are emerging and what early adopters are learning. Featuring national insights from organizations advancing awareness and advocacy around CTS codes, along with perspectives from healthcare providers integrating the CTS codes into practice, the webinar will offer a clear look at both the policy landscape and on the ground implementation. Participants will gain practical resources and strategies to strengthen caregiver engagement and embed caregiver support within existing care models. Join Rush University Medical Center, AARP, and the National Alliance for Caregiving for this important discussion on advancing support for family caregivers and strengthen care delivery.
