The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Hospice Quality Program (HQRP) began in July 2014, requiring hospices to submit the Hospice Item Set ( HIS) for each hospice patient admission and discharge. This presentation will focus on how the process for data abstraction of this HQRP requirement can be used to capture other important data for hospice programs.
Learning Objectives:
1. Describe the requirements for HQRP
2. Discuss workflow strategies to operationalize the HIS data abstraction requirements
3. Discuss key clinical indicators that can be collected during the HIS data abstraction process
