Sansio is pleased to announce that Rich Brennan, Director of the Home Care Techology Association of America (HCTAA) and Deputy Director of Government Affairs for NAHC, will be presenting at the 2010 HomeSolutions.NET User Conference in October.

Rich Brennan serves as the Deputy Director of Government Affairs for the National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC) and the Director of its affiliated Home Care Technology Association of America (HCTAA). Rich’s areas of expertise include legislative and regulatory issues pertaining to electronic health records (EHRs), telehealth, point of care technologies, remote monitoring technologies and disruptive technologies in the home health and hospice industry.

As the healthcare industry moves towards electronic health records across the continuum, home health and other segments of the long term post-acute care market (LTPAC) will need to understand how it affects their business, clients, and employees.  Stage 1 of the ARRA (American Reinvestment and Recovery Act) provided meaningful use incentives to qualified providers including hospitals and physician practices, Stages 2 and 3 will more directly impact LTPAC providers.

In harmony with the conference’s theme of “Moving Towards Paperless”, Rich is considered one of the industry’s top representatives dedicated to advancing legislative awareness of technology, EHR’s and interoperability in home health.  Rich will provide valuable perspective and forecast the legislative, regulatory, and business drivers that will help agencies understand how they can best position and prepare for future success.

Sansio is pleased to announce that Real Time PECOS Enrollment Verification and Dashboards has successfully passed through its development, testing and QA processes and has been released to all customers.  PECOS is the Medicare Provider Enrollment, Chain, and Ownership System. This system is a CMS initiative to support the Medicare provider and supplier enrollment process. The PECOS system manages, tracks, and validates enrollment data collected in both paper form and electronically via the Internet.

Sansio has integrated the status of Physician PECOS registration into many areas of the workflow process in HomeSolutions.NET.  This includes Intake/Referral and the client’s eChart > Physician section as well as supporting reports.   A PECOS Dashboard has also been added which shows live enrollment status for Open Admissions. HomeSolutions.NET will even take into account a Pending Application status in verifying enrollment.

“Initially, we were asked by customers via our Enhancement Idea process to add a PECOS enrollment status report to HomeSolutions.NET”, states Darris Clark, VP of Homecare. “After reviewing typical workflow processes, we went over and above basic reporting functionality and placed this information dynamically throughout HomeSolutions.NET.  This design approach will greatly minimize the time and complexity involved with verifying PECOS enrollment status as CMS continues to clarify their position on the effect of PECOS status on claims.”
