Hospital Managed Services (HMS) by BAYADA Home Health Care

BAYADA’s Hospital Managed Services (HMS) team helps health care systems and payors deliver high-quality services in lower cost settings, specifically in the patient’s home. Our HMS program is specially designed to help health care providers and payors respond to and work efficiently within alternative payment models (APMs) that reward clinical outcomes at lower costs. Examples of APMs are:

Bundled Payments for Care Improvement (BPCI)

Non-mandated initiatives that give hospitals the opportunity to participate in cost savings

Bundles

Support for Medicare beneficiaries undergoing hip and knee replacements (lower extremity joint replacement). BAYADA works together with acute and other post-acute providers to improve quality and coordination of care

Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs)

Organizations that take on the responsibility of coordinating care with a focus on reducing costs and improving outcomes

Value-Based Payments

Increases or decreases in fee-for-service reimbursements based on a series of key metrics that measure quality outcomes and client experience

The BAYADA Solution for Today’s Hospitals and Health Systems

Today, virtually every health system is participating in at least one of these APM initiatives. As a concurrent trend, health systems are scaling down their numbers of acute beds in favor of alternative settings for care delivery such as off-campus emergency departments (EDs), surgery centers, and urgent med clinics. Community and home settings allow health systems to stay closer to their client population and provide more timely care at a lower cost. As hospitals and health systems are expanding their community presence, they also are narrowing the number and type of providers they are willing to work with and creating their post-acute network (PAC).

When a health system evaluates its PAC network, it often finds that its existing Home Health and Hospice operations aren’t making the grade either financially or clinically, prompting the health system to explore other options. At this point, decision makers find that BAYADA’s expertise in this area is well known.

The BAYADA Difference

BAYADA has mastered the art of coordinating a distributed workforce and managing care for homebound clients. The work is not easy, yet it is our core competency. Health systems are seeking to align with home health care providers like BAYADA who are proven leaders in their field and can help them implement the strategies necessary to achieve their goals and be successful in the new health care environment. BAYADA is uniquely qualified to assist in this area, flexibly partnering with health systems to meet their unique needs and investing in the customized capabilities necessary for our joint venture partners to be successful over the long term.

“The BAYADA partnership is helping hospitals improve operational efficiency through readmission reduction by managing select high cost chronic patients post discharge monitoring.”

Joanne Carrocino, FACHE, President & CEO, Cape Regional Medical Center

“Cape Regional Health System’s goal was to partner with a proven, respected home health care company with a reputation second to none. When evaluating partners, we compared quality, patient satisfaction results, employee engagement, leadership, financial results, business development strategies, reputation, ability to adequately service our Cape May County, and commitment to serving our community, regardless of ability to pay.

Our expectations have been exceeded in every category. Our home care agency is providing high quality home care services and achieving high levels of patient satisfaction. BAYADA provides a very strong leadership team that is focused on the goals that we mutually developed as joint venture partners.

We truly value the dedication and commitment of each and every team member to The BAYADA Way—specifically to deliver the highest quality home health care services with compassion, excellence, and reliability.”

Mark Lyles, MD, MBA, Chief Affiliations and Business Transformation Officer, Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine, Medical University of South Carolina

“The aim of MUSC Health was to identify and partner with a home health company that shares our like-minded mission of delivering high quality health care services in all patient care settings.

Our expectations have been exceeded as a direct result of the forward-thinking, cost-conscious, and compassionate approaches of the entire BAYADA team to ensure our partnership is successful.

MUSC Health greatly values the integrity, transparency, and collegiality that BAYADA employees have exhibited during each and every stage our partnership, from our initial negotiations all the way to the successful launch of our new home health joint venture.”

We believe building relationships and working together are critical to our success as a community of compassionate caregivers.
