Our friends at Greenspace Health and the Yale Measurement-Based Care Collaborative (MBCC) have launched a new MBC knowledge hub.

The ongoing partnership between Greenspace and the Yale MBCC has been an exceptional opportunity for us to engage in insightful MBC discussions and education. In fact, the three-part MBC education series saw attendance from almost 1500 clinical leaders and clinicians.

Throughout the course of the series, Greenspace led engaging sessions with the Yale MBCC, shared insightful content, and delivered many Q&A style videos in order to support anyone looking to learn more about MBC. From research to implementation, its use in practice, and the overall impact MBC is having on the quality of care across North America — there were remarkable learnings and information shared by the experts at Yale.

Today, Greenspace and the Yale MBCC have launched a comprehensive educational hub where you can explore videos, articles, and insights shared from the Yale MBCC team, all in one place.

The Yale MBC Collaborative Knowledge Hub is now live for you to explore and learn from. Be sure to check it out.

A workplace culture that prioritizes well-being improves employee engagement and increases the retention of passionate, competent staff. Research shows that positivity is essential to promoting well-being, yet many still have a very misguided view of what positivity really means. Over the last several years, however, researchers have proven that we can measure, induce, and cultivate greater positivity.

  • Webinar date: Thursday, June 1, 2023, at 2:00 pm ET

On Thursday, May 25, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) posted updated information to the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) Review Choice Demonstration (RCD) website. Included in this updated information is the Review Choice Demonstration for Rehabilitation Facility Services Operational Guide and the IRF RCD Process Flowchart. The flowchart is also contained as an appendix in the operational guide.

The Operational Guide provides additional detail on the processes for IRFs impacted by the RCD. The IRF RCD is expected to begin in Alabama on August 21, 2023. The next phase of the rollout has not been shared yet; however, Pennsylvania is expected to be one of the next states to be impacted.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently notified the American Medical Rehabilitation Providers Association (AMRPA) that the rollout of the Review Choice Demonstration (RCD) would begin on August 21, 2023, in Alabama. In previous information released about the RCD, Pennsylvania is most likely to be one of the next states in line for this rollout. Under this demonstration, CMS Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) will review all Medicare Fee-for-Service (FFS) claims in select states. CMS will utilize a dedicated website to provide updated information and resources to inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) stakeholders.

RCPA is working closely with AMRPA staff and will keep members apprised of developments and updates throughout the demonstration. The RCD website confirms that affected IRFs will have the option to elect pre-claim or post-payment review (and must use the same option for all claims).
