PDPM will require at least modest new technology solutions to augment the traditional approach to reimbursement management. The SNF market is heavily saturated with newfangled technology “solutions” claiming to be the comprehensive answer to PDPM efficiency, reimbursement optimization and quality improvement.

The result is an industry plagued with technology fatigue, counter-productive initiatives and buyer’s remorse. The session will empower SNF managers to improve the Return on Investment of both quality and reimbursement, regardless of the system selected to provide specific functionality.
