This will provide agencies with an easy-to-understand analysis of their financial performance under the 2008 PPS Refinement.
PPS Forecaster allows any Medicare-certified homecare provider to easily calculate their service and supply utilization based on the organization’s average cost and use as well as view profit/loss analysis and PPS reimbursement based on their unique service and supply utilization.
With PPS Forecaster, any homecare provider may evaluate data responses one at a time in regards to changes in PPS reimbursement as well as evaluate PPS reimbursement on a larger scale through the PPS analysis section of the tool.
