  • Title: Into the mix results from PPS per-episode demonstration & case-mix study.
    Author: Sullivan CM.
    Journal: Caring; 2000 Jan; 19(1):12-5. PubMed ID: 10787812.
    Abstract:
    The Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) released two reports in October 1999 that provide insight into the development of a per-episode prospective payment system (PPS) for Medicare home health. These reports provide important clues about two critical issues: the impact of per-episode payment on the cost of providing home health care, and how to predict the resources used by home health patients.
