HHSM TESTIMONIALS

HOME HEALTH CONSULTING

"The workshop Home Health Strategic Management presented us at NSCL was awesome.  Arnie Cisneros is a fantastic speaker who provided us with new and appropriate strategies regarding OASIS and HHRG analysis as well as a Case Conference Management Model. The strategies needed to conduct (case conferencing) are different from what we currently use at NSCL,Inc.  I look forward to using their services again soon as we prepare for the implementation of the Proposed Rule."

“St. Joseph Mercy Home Care developed a partnership with Arnie Cisneros and Teri Thompson of HHSM to implement necessary changes in our agency. The goals were to optimize therapy utilization, minimize downcodes, improve Home Care Compare scores and increase referrals. The cornerstone of their program is education and staff development regarding clinical analysis and case conference strategies. After 90 days, Home Care Compare scores improved and downcodes were reduced. At the same time, visit totals decreased while reimbursement ratios improved. These results have exceeded our expectations in terms of measurable progress towards the planned program objectives.”

"During my three decades in health care, Home Health Strategic Management has clearly claimed their position as the “best” resource I have ever used. Quite simply, they are masters at synthesizing clinical information with pragmatic decision making. They represent that element of consulting that is often talked about but rarely, if ever, achieved; collaborative partners that elevate the client to the level of preferred status.

"The principals, Arnie Cisneros and Teri Thompson, are hallmark clinicians with the business savvy needed to position the client for success, not just survival."
