QAPI isn’t just about passing surveys. A successful QAPI program is so important for your agency to increase efficiency, improve outcomes, lessen risk, and prevent issues. Beware: Agencies that cannot improve outcomes will have a difficult time with long-term viability. Join this one-of-a-kind webinar to learn more about maximizing compliance and quality of care.

 AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

• Understand the QAPI CoP
• Use data-driven elements like Internet Quality Improvement & Evaluation System (iQIES) and Home Health Care Compare
• Know the key areas to develop a QAPI program
• Select quality indicators and PIPs
• Collect data from clinical record reviews, etc. to target lower outcomes
• Involve all staff in QAPI
• Develop action plans for improvement

WEBINAR DETAILS: Regardless of how long you’ve been doing it, QAPI is not easy. Success takes time, an understanding of the concepts, and complete staff involvement. It’s worth every bit of the effort though; QAPI helps improve patient – and therefore agency – outcomes, which are so necessary in today’s pay-for-performance environment with five-star ratings and value-based purchasing.

QAPI also will help your agency avoid the crisis du jour mindset – the daily ”putting out fires” grind - and instead fix the root of the problems! This will then free up the time needed to ensure your QAPI program is a good one. As you progress with quality indicators, your compliance with clinical documentation, processes, and home visits will also increase. This will lessen the risk of condition-level deficiencies, immediate jeopardy, and sanctions.

THIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES: Home Health

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This informative session is designed for administrators, QAPI coordinators, directors of patient services, and field staff.
