      Home Health Franchise

      Home health operations are an important and expanding part of today’s healthcare delivery.
      They are also growing more complex. Mounting regulations from HCFA, JCAHO, state agencies
      and commercial payors make it increasingly difficult to stay focused on the primary goal: the
      provision of quality outcomes delivered in a home setting. Home health leaders are challenged
      to deliver quality care in an efficient, cost effective manner, especially with Pay for Performance
      on the horizon.

      QHR’s Home Care Franchise helps you work through the maze of regulations and achieve a high
      level of excellence for your agency.


      Components of the QHR Home Care Franchise:

      ■ Three on-site reviews annually to identify
      improvement potential in Compliance, Operations,
      and JCAHO readiness. This information is used to
      develop your Management Action Plan, which
      guides the effective operation of your agency in
      a compliant and efficient manner.

      ■ JCAHO Accreditation Readiness Review/Mock
      Survey is conducted six to twelve months prior to
      anticipated JCAHO survey to identify potential
      noncompliant areas. This engagement includes
      both office-based and site-based reviews.      		■ Operational analysis by QHR Home Health
      consultants of reimbursement and financial trends,
      patient service utilization practices compared to
      industry and national productivity benchmarks,
      and identification of admissions growth opportunities
      and development of marketing strategies.

      ■ Basic compliance review of Administrative, Patient
      Care and Personnel records. QHR consultants review
      manuals, administrative and medical records, as well
      as interview staff and conduct home visits to provide
      this service.


      QHR’s Home Health Franchise also Includes:

      ■ Annual membership in the National Association for Home Care, the premier home care trade association

      ■ Reduced pricing on home care materials and resources through SSP arrangements

      ■ Consultative support through phone conferences and publications

      ■ Ongoing updates and alerts to industry and regulatory changes

      ■ Monthly continuing education teleconferences
