Since the 2020 global pandemic, Hospital at Home (HaH), a healthcare delivery model that provides hospital-level care in the comfort of a patient’s home, has revolutionized healthcare delivery. Known as the Acute Hospital Care at Home (AHCAH) initiative, It allows patients to receive medical treatment, including nursing care, traditionally received in a hospital. This approach is effective for certain conditions and can lead to improved patient outcomes, increased patient satisfaction, and cost savings. As such, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has extended the AHCAH through December 31, 2024. However, there are established specific guidelines to ensure patient safety and quality of care within this model. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gKeT-fqF
