Pay Meeting Fees Here

The April 22 & 24 educational program will be presented on Zoom by WellSky’s Katherine Morrison.

Join us for an essential presentation, “Hospice Outcomes and Patient Evaluation Tool: Leaders need to do more than HOPE,” led by WellSky. Hospices need not use WellSky to benefit from the presentation.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) have finalized the Hospice Outcomes and Patient Evaluation (HOPE) instrument, to better track patient outcomes and regulatory compliance across the hospice stay. Hospices across the country are preparing for the changes inevitable with the implementation of HOPE.

Participants will gain insight into the operational challenges associated with integrating the HOPE tool into existing workflows, including staff training, documentation alignment, and technology integration. The session will also explore best practices and strategic approaches to streamline implementation, reduce staff burden and ensure accurate, efficient data collection.

Key strategies will include assessing organizational readiness, leveraging technology, and supporting compliance efforts to drive a culture of quality care.
