OASIS-E, Value Based Purchasing, PDGM and STAR metrics have all contributed to the remarkable transformation of the Home Health Care industry.  The time for OASIS precision has never been more critical. Effective Home Health Care Agencies must integrate a multidisciplinary approach aimed at achieving measurable, meaningful characteristics and abilities useful to the patient-all within an efficient and effective delivery system. Understanding and applying the data provided by a comprehensive and accurate OASIS assessment can be your agency’s key to success in achieving this objective.

This course, OASIS-E and STAR, is the fifth module from the Advanced Competency in OASIS-E Certificate program and consists of an one part module for a total of 2 hours. This module investigates the source of your Agencies’ STAR power and explores assessment strategies to improve OASIS coding within both outcome and process metrics. This module will journey through the improvement standards of the seven (7) Golden STARS that drive your quality rating. Upon completion of this this module, the Physical Therapist will be able to correctly differentiate patient “ability vs. performance” distinctions necessary for OASIS accuracy while harmonizing the unique environmental and cognitive influences on OASIS coding-all within an evidenced-based mindset.

Assessment:  Upon successful completion of the 10 question post course quiz, the Physical Therapist will be granted a continuing education certificate for completing this module. You will have 2 attempts to achieve a passing score of 70% on the quiz.
