    Author: Blumenthal C.
    Journal: Home Healthc Nurse Manag; 2000; 4(2):19-25. PubMed ID: 11075060.
    Abstract:
    A rural health department-based home health agency's financial status was jeopardized by the BBA's per-beneficiary and reduced per-visit cost limits. This article describes the process used and the benefits gained from reorganizing operations and traditional practice patterns. These strategies are helping position the agency for PPS later this year.
