In comments on the Post-Acute Care Management Models Regulatory Modernization Initiative, LeadingAge NY asked DOH to support collaborative post-acute care models rather than changing home care licensing regulations to permit hospitals to provide home-based services.

The Work Group's second meeting included wide-ranging discussion of home-based care delivered by hospitals and policy proposals related to post-acute care.

The Work Group will meet on Mon., Sept. 18, 2017 from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the New York Academy of Medicine, 1216 Fifth Avenue, Room #2, New York, NY. The meeting will be webcast.

At its first meeting, the Work Group focused on barriers to home-based, post-acute care and hospital interest in delivering it.

The Post-Acute Care Management Models Work Group will focus on the provision of in-home, post-acute care by providers other than home care agencies.

The ODF will include Hospice CAHPS, CY 2018 Home Health Prospective Payment System Final Rule, and FY 2018 Hospice Payment Rate updates.

Another opportunity to discuss relief from the home care and hospice regulations and mandates.
