Home health agencies participating in Medicare are required by federal law to produce annually a timely and accurate cost report. These reports are used to set future Medicare payments. When properly completed, the reports can also be a valuable financial management tool. Instructors will cover:
- The purpose of the cost report
- Medicare cost calculation methodologies in reimbursable and nonreimbursable
cost centers - Sources of information to complete the cost report worksheets
- The financial outcomes reflected in the cost report that will have an
effect on operations - Benchmarking information provided by the cost report to improve
financial and operational performance - Hospital Financial managers will gain insights into how the home
health cost report fits into the overall financial picture of the hospital
or health system.
