MIH and CP programs have become invaluable in decreasing hospital readmission rates, supporting providers in managing disease exacerbations, and reducing non-emergency calls to 911. Additionally, these programs have become instrumental in addressing social determinants of health and reducing community risk through alternate destination transport, mental health programs, COVID testing and vaccination, prenatal care, fall prevention, and more. Add to this the emerging Hospital-At-Home model and increased savings to payers, and it's no wonder MIH and CP providers are getting the attention of hospital systems, payers, and CMS.
Learning Objectives:
Better understand avenues for finding MIH programs.
Be familiar with legislation and regulations surrounding MIH programs in different states.
Better understand the educational, credentialing, and accrediting standards of the different members of MIH teams.
