2013 National State of the Home Care Industry Study Seeks 1,000 Agencies to Address EHR, Telehealth and Operational Best Practices

Delta Health Technologies, LLC (“Delta”) urges homecare agencies of all types and demographics to participate in the 2013 National State of the Home Care Industry Study during the month of March.

Designed to uncover and spotlight agency best practices in the areas of IT/EHR, telehealth and operations, the national initiative will provide industry leaders with critical insights and guidelines for positive outcomes, high quality scores and fiscal responsibility.

Delta and co-sponsors National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC), Forum of State Associations, The Joint Commission, Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP), research firm Fazzi Associates and others are seeking up to 1,000 agency leaders to register for interviews, which will be conducted by phone. In order to be considered for participation, agencies must be Medicare certified with Medicare revenues of $500,000 or greater, and have a minimum of one year of Medicare Home Health Compare data.

Once all data is collected and analyzed, the final phase will include distribution of free national reports and webinars as well as a presentation on the findings during the NAHC Annual Meeting in October. Agency participants will be among the first individuals to receive the reports.
