OASIS is the foundation for quality and payment metrics. Inaccurate and inconsistent OASIS data collection by clinicians can lead to improperly reported outcomes and reduced reimbursement that fails to reflect the care they are providing.
Improving your OASIS accuracy by leveraging MedBridge’s OASIS Boosters ensures accurate outcomes and maximizes reimbursements for your staff. MedBridge’s OASIS Boosters are taught by leading industry expert Cindy Krafft, PT, MS, HCS-O. The Boosters are designed to help equip home health clinicians with the training they need to improve OASIS accuracy in easily digestible, 2-to-7-minute courses.
Start by reviewing your OASIS corrections data and determining which key OASIS areas your agency needs to improve. You can then create a custom Knowledge Track by choosing from the courses below based on your specific needs. For more information about building Knowledge Tracks, check out Getting Started With the MedBridge LMS.
OASIS Boosters
These courses target OASIS payment-relevant and HHVBP-relevant items. If your agency sees a high percentage of changes related to the items below, consider building a Knowledge Track with some or all of these courses and assigning it to your staff.
Track Name: OASIS PDGM and HHVBP Boosters
Track Description: This series of micro courses will focus on each of the payment-relevant and HHVBP-relevant OASIS items in detail. They will be explained in practical terms, include knowledge application, and be connected to related GG items to facilitate assessment consistency. Clinicians and quality assurance staff will benefit from a focused review of the OASIS items that relate to PDGM and HHVBP. The goal is for the data to be collected accurately the first time in order to ensure proper payment and decrease agency costs.
