The HH setting has historically been highly responsive to regulatory shifts and policy nudges. As we analyze the effects of the new payment model, the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM), state-level Certificate of Need laws, and prioritization of quality ratings, we must understand that HH patients are not a homogeneous group. HH patients have different care needs, often driven by their health, functional status, and at-home support. This symposium features four studies that explore the impact of various policies on HH care. Two presentations focus specifically on PDGM and examine how certain aspects of the model influence HH service utilization.  \nThe first presentation examines how PDGM has impacted community-entry HH use among individuals living with dementia.  \nThe second presentation investigates changes in post-acute therapy services for older adults transitioning home following hospitalization. The third presentation examines the provision of high-quality HH for individuals with dementia, raising questions about the effectiveness of current measures in capturing care quality. The fourth presentation evaluates the impact of Certificate of Need laws on HH use among persons with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. These innovative studies will foster nuanced discussions about the complexities of the current HH environment and inform future policy recommendations.","cbCaioFd4MYFZAW9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioFd4MYFZAW9","pdf",142605,"English","# Symposium overview\n## Policy instruments shaping home health\n## Evidence from four studies","[{\"question\":\"Which policies are analyzed in the home health symposium?\",\"answer\":\"The symposium focuses on the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM), state Certificate of Need laws, and prioritization of quality ratings.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the symposium characterize home health patients?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes that HH patients are not a homogeneous group, with care needs shaped by health, functional status, and at-home support.\"},{\"question\":\"What research questions do the four featured studies address?\",\"answer\":\"They examine PDGM effects on community-entry use for people with dementia, post-acute therapy changes for older adults after hospitalization, dementia-related HH quality and limits of current quality measures, and Certificate of Need impacts on HH use for Alzheimer’s and related dementias.\"}]","NAVIGATING POLICY SHIFTS IN HOME HEALTH - No. 85 - Symposium overview | PDF",1790626073]
