Don’t Miss Your Opportunity to Participate in the Largest Healthcare at Home Study to Date

HHAC has partnered with the leaders of the National Healthcare at Home Best Practices Study to deliver best practices and insights on the future of home care delivery to our members. The study is now in its final stages and we need to ensure Colorado is represented.  Agencies who have not yet participated in the full study are asked to complete 25 key questions to ensure all agency demographics are represented.  Click here to complete the survey and make sure your voice is heard.  

Some exciting preliminary insights from the study to date include:

• Not measuring or knowing your staff turnover rate can lead to one full patient satisfaction STAR rating below agencies that do.  
• Hospices with palliative care programs show an increased median length of stay from 19 days to 26 days while maintaining a healthy average length of stay of 72 days.  
• Pay was listed as the number one reason for staff turnover in both home health and hospice surveys, followed by home care and COVID related burnout.  In addition, agencies that offered a variety of bonuses had lower overall turnover rates.

Participating agencies receive exclusive access to an interactive portal with detailed benchmarks that can be segmented by size, outcomes, and more.  But we can’t include all breakdowns, including by state, unless we receive your help.  Join hundreds of other thousand agency sites who have completed the National Best Practice Study survey today and get access to ALL insights released from the study.

The National Healthcare at Home Best Practices Study is sponsored by HHAC,  National Association for Home Care and Hospice (NAHC),  National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO), NAHC Forum of State Associations, LeadingAge, Home Care Association of America (HCAOA), and Council of State Home Care Associations.   Agencies can learn more about the study at the study website or by emailing [email protected]
