Home Health Value Based Purchasing Updated Resources

by Lori A. Marmon, PT, MBA, COS-C

The Expanded Home Health Value-Based Purchasing Model webpage is loaded with valuable information for home health agencies looking to succeed in the HHVBP Model. As the Model is focused on improving quality of care delivery with greater efficiencies, accessing updated resources timely can have rewards for agencies.

While this webpage contains background and historical information, there are additional resources that are updated periodically. Recent updates for some of these useful model resources were completed in December of 2024 and include:

Expanded HHVBP Model Guide: This resource provides the foundational basis for the expanded HHVBP Model and is an informative reference that includes nine (9) sections that lead providers through the overview and details of the development, application, and implementation of the expanded HHVBP Model. This resource was updated to reflect any changes needed for current accuracy
Expanded HHVBP Model Resource Index: This resource provides an easy to use means for researching and locating all available tools for providers related to enhancing their understanding of the HHVBP Model in a variety of formats (for example, recordings or podcast resources). This resource was updated to include the most recent resources now available.
Expanded HHVBP Model Newsletter: This publication serves as a method for HHAs to regularly keep abreast of topics impacting the HHVBP Model. It includes focused categories like Help Desk Highlights where agencies can review the inquiries and responses from recent questions addressed through the expanded HHVBP Model Help Desk.

With all this impactful content available at their fingertips, HHAs may consider creating a regular plan for reviewing the HHVBP Model webpage to optimize their ability to remain current and engaged with the Model and associated resources.
