CMS Announces Medicare Home Health CY 2023 Payment Development Webinar

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that it will be holding a webinar on Wed., March 29, 2023 from 1:30 to 3 p.m. ET during which experts will provide an overview of several provisions from the Calendar Year (CY) 2023 Home Health Prospective Payment System (HH PPS) Final Rule related to behavior changes, the construction of 60-day episodes, and payment rate development for CY 2023.

Further details and materials are forthcoming. LeadingAge National encourages all home health members to register for this webinar in order to better understand CMS’ rationale for the nearly 8 percent cut proposed in last year’s rule. As legislatively required, LeadingAge National expects CMS to release data for the stakeholder community to utilize in analyzing the payment system no later than Feb. 28, 2023.

LeadingAge National is also convening a workgroup to review the data and its impact on patients served by non-profit, mission-driven agencies. If you are interested in supporting this effort, please email Katy Barnett at kbarnett@leadingage.org.
