Webinar in partnership with:

Understanding cash flow impact and opportunities in today’s unprecedented times is critical for maintaining a healthy organization. The current public health emergency has significantly affected home health agency care delivery, operations and cash flow, while at the same time creating numerous financial opportunities for grants, stimulus dollars, and other financial support. Maintaining an awareness of these opportunities without losing sight of the impact of PDGM has presented a multitude of challenges for clinical and financial leadership.

This session will provide an overview of financial opportunities currently available to home health agencies and will provide insights into assessing the impact of PDGM on operations and cash flow by focusing on key performance indicators.
