SNF at Home: Policy Issues Related to the Next Frontier of Care in the Home (Panel)

Hospitals across the country are facing a discharge crisis, with patients ready for discharge sitting in inpatient beds for days and sometimes weeks and other patients needing care boarding in the ER. This panel will examine “SNF at Home” as one solution to this problem. The session will discuss the care model, how it works in practical terms, needed legislative changes, patient and caregiver reactions and technology needs. Quality post-acute care is crucial for patient recovery. With the number of patients requiring post-acute care in an environment with reduced options, and the resulting bottlenecks in hospitals due to difficulty of finding available beds for discharge, the “SNF at Home” model presents a valuable opportunity to expand post-acute care capacity. This integrated approach allows services to be delivered directly to patients in their own homes, promoting recovery in a familiar environment, not only enhancing patient resilience but also reducing caregiver stress. The panel will discuss the legislative and regulatory frameworks needed to implement and support this innovative care model.

Redefining Pediatric Care Delivery

PONCE DE LEON I-II

The Nemours Children’s Center for Advanced Care at Home (ACaH) is a novel pediatric care model that redefines how care is delivered when bridging the hospital and the home. Through a tech-enabled, virtually managed model, ACaH supports early discharge, complex patient transitions, and specialty care follow-up across diverse clinical use cases. With a 24/7 command center, remote monitoring, and in-home services, ACaH improves quality, reduces costs, and enhances family satisfaction. The program has demonstrated the ability to reduce hospital stays, avoid ED visits, and achieve very high patient experience scores, setting a new standard for accessible, family-centered care. This session will explore the distinctive features and clinical significance of the Nemours Children’s Center for Advanced Care at Home (ACaH) model in the evolution of pediatric healthcare delivery. The presenter will discuss the ways in which ACaH is utilizing advanced technology, virtual oversight, measurable outcomes and in-home services to optimize patient outcomes, control healthcare expenditures, and elevate family satisfaction.

Unleash Your Inner Entrepreneur

Reframing Hospital-at-Home for the C-Suite

ROOM: JOURNEY A

It’s clear that Hospital at Home has a positive impact on patients. The challenge in scaling has not been the clinical model itself, but in proving financial sustainability and its strategic importance to the C-Suite. In this frank discussion, we’ll explore how the next evolution will require operationalizing workflows for a significantly larger patient population – an extremely difficult barrier to overcome. We want to deliver on Hospital at Home’s original promise: bringing quality care to more settings with a great patient experience, without the weight of hospital overhead. To achieve this, Hospital at Home must be a part of a broader ecosystem of care delivery in out-of-hospital settings – extending to advanced care at home or enhanced outpatient models. No one has all the answers, but we must go back to entrepreneurial basics to reimagine the right processes, define the data to action infrastructure, and integrate technology that enables scale – to deliver value with 10x the impact at 1/10th the cost.

Transforming a Relationship into a Partnership

How to Partner with your Mobile Integrated Health Provider to Successfully Scale your HaH Program

ROOM: JOURNEY A

Hospital-at-home programs typically begin their journey into decentralized care with a relationship with an in-home clinician provider.  Commonly, this starts as a vendor relationship, with services provided based on contractual language.  In order to successfully scale a hospital-at-home program, leaders must move beyond a relationship and into a partnership with your in-home clinicians, establishing shared vision and strategy.  As experts in the fields of mobile integrated healthcare and hospital at home, the presenters will share strategies to upskill the clinicians, develop a sense of patient ownership and team comradery, and ultimately achieve your program goals with your MIH partner.
