Healthy Outcomes: Exploring home and community-based services: Insights and considerations for healthcare organizations 

A conversation with Francesca Muterspaw, CEO of Simple Solution Consulting 

On this episode of Healthy Outcomes, our host Mark Ross interviews Francesca Muterspaw, CEO of Simple Solution Consulting. Together, they discuss home and community-based services (HCBS) and what healthcare organizations need to know about home and community-based services. 

Topics of discussion include:  

  • Services that fall under the HCBS umbrella
  • Forces that are giving rise to an increase in the volume of HCBS
  • Reimbursement pressures impacting HCBS providers
  • Trends in HCBS, including increased demand, private equity investment and expanded technology service offerings
  • Issues organizations should think about as they embark on a HCBS strategy

On the day the podcast was recorded, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) published a draft regulation that proposed cutting reimbursements to home health providers by 2.2% in fiscal 2024. The proposed rate change is the product of a 3% market basket update, a minus 5.1% adjustment related to the patient-driven groupings model and other factors.
