Webinar Caring Smarter

People who choose a life of caring — and the organizations and communities they serve — deserve a special kind of support.

Understanding and improving your Hospice Care Index score

Presented by Beth Noyce, RN, BSJMC, HCS-C, BCHH-C, COQS

The Hospice Care Index (HCI), a claims-based quality measure included in the Hospice Quality Reporting Program (HQRP), reveals a lot about a hospice agency's patient care. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) designed the HCI to provide a broad overview of hospice care quality between admission and discharge. Unlike a single-indicator measure, the HCI considers 10 indicators simultaneously and is less likely to be affected by circumstances outside the hospice’s control. Understanding what those indicators are and how they are calculated is key to your HCI success.

Join one of the most well-known home health and hospice consultants — Beth Noyce, RN, BSJMC, HCS-C, BCHH-C, COQS — for an educational webinar on HCI indicators and learn tips to help your hospice agency improve its score.

During this webinar, you'll learn more about:

  • The 10 quality indicators that comprise the HCI
  • How each indicator is calculated and weighted in developing your score
  • How to implement processes that demonstrate great patient care
