Impacts of the 2026 HH Proposed Rule with HCHB Analytics

Navigate the Regulatory Landscape with HCHB Analytics

HCHB is committed to helping agencies navigate the changing regulatory landscape. To help empower your advocacy efforts for the 2026 Medicare Home Health Proposed Rule, we’ve launched dashboards in HCHB Analytics that highlight key themes like access to care and the CMS behavioral assumptions that drive these adjustments. 

In this webinar we reviewed:  

  • Impact Model: HCHB’s Impact Model provides an in-depth analysis of how the proposed changes from CMS could affect your PDGM periods in 2026. 
  • Referral Conversion Dashboard: Tracks the decline in home health referral conversion rates amid staffing shortages and rising costs, illustrating patient access concerns. 
  • Revenue and Inflation Dashboard: Compares inflation and operational costs with stagnant reimbursement rates, visualizing the growing financial gap. 
  • Clinical Group Behavior Dashboard: Analyzes diagnosis changes between field entries and final claims to counter CMS’s assumptions that providers are gaming the system. HCHB’s data shows such behavior is not widespread. 
  • Medicare Advantage Dashboard: View key home health metrics, comparing Traditional Medicare to Medicare Advantage patients.  
  • Clinician Turnover Dashboard: Compare turnover metrics over time by discipline.
