The all-new Connect Conference in August combines three previous popular conferences – Senior Living NOW, Assisted Living & Home Care, and Adult Day - into an interactive experience intentionally designed to bring providers across the home- and community-based continuum together to address issues in common and to shape the future of service to older adults. 

Register your interdisciplinary team today for one of four July workshops, A Team Approach to Operationalizing PDPM, to prepare for the Oct.1 implementation of the Patient Drive Payment Model (PDPM) classification system for Medicare Part A payments. The new system has significant implications for clinical operations, pre-admission screening, IDT documentation, and may even influence the types of individuals you will admit. 

Learn how to develop a system to create more effective waiting lists for your housing community and keep prospects engaged and committed – and move past the dreaded “I’m not ready yet” objection. m 

This is the biggest conference for home- and community-based providers to hit the state ever. Don’t miss the Connect Conference, Aug. 20 and 21, which brings together providers from the full spectrum of senior housing, assisted living, home care and adult day to discuss the important issues and opportunities that impact us all. 

With less than one week to go in the 2019 Legislative Session, there are bills advancing that will result in landmark changes to your operations, staffing and ability to ensure safe, quality affordable care to our fast-growing aging population. Register today for a June District Meeting, where our advocacy team will lead a deep dive discussion on these changes and plan the next steps we will take together as a provider community.   

The May 15 PDPM workshop is nearly sold out; just a few seats remain. Successful Leadership Strategies to Prepare for PDPM is designed for your executive leadership team with important information as you prepare your organizations for the transition to PDPM.  

Countdown to the Oct. 1, 2019 implementation of Patient-Driven Payment Model, the new classification system for Medicare Part A payments, is now just five months away. Get ready by attending these crucial training sessions:
