Message from Arnie Cisneros Presenter at HCLA Annual Conference

The NAHC Annual Conference has many presentations on ACOs, post-acute care, care transitions, and ideas related to chronic care management that we have been discussing for the past few years. Implementation experiences of various providers are giving progressive, forward thinking home health agencies a road map to adapting their businesses to enhance their value proposition.

One such presentation and road map will be offered at the HCLA Annual Conference, November 8th and 9th in Baton Rouge. Detroit Medical Center’s Linda Alexander, RN, who received a Pioneer ACO grant and has vetted post-acute partners, will present their experience along with Arnie Cisneros, who assisted them in the process. View Arnie’s brief video about the presentation. Times are changing rapidly for home health. Providers that have the latest information will have an advantage. Join us November 8th and 9th.
