Econometrica, Inc. Introduces Online OASIS-E1 Training Course
Econometrica, Inc., a recognized leader in health analytics, has officially launched the
Introduction to OASIS-E1, designed specifically for home health agencies (HHAs) and their respective staff. This online course is an essential resource for professionals aiming to enhance their understanding and proficiency in OASIS coding. The training is now available at
Econometrica Learning.
The OASIS (Outcome and Assessment Information Set) is a critical dataset mandated by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for capturing essential patient data in the realm of home health care. Econometrica's team of specialists, who have garnered over
seven years of experience as the official Training Developer for CMS, brings a wealth of knowledge to this course. Their firsthand experience ensures that the training is not only comprehensive but also aligns with the latest industry standards in coding and data collection.
Importance of Accurate OASIS Data Collection
While the Home Health Quality Reporting Program provides a foundational understanding of OASIS data collection, many agencies find that the existing guidance is limited. Accurate OASIS data collection is vital for HHAs to ensure they meet regulatory requirements and secure necessary reimbursements. Econometrica's training course emphasizes the profound implications of accurate coding, helping agencies to avoid costly errors that can occur due to misunderstandings or improper use of the OASIS tools.
This
30-minute course offers participants a thorough overview of both the OASIS-E1 dataset and the guidance manual. It is structured to facilitate clinician understanding through various instructional methodologies, including illustrated examples and case studies. Key topics include general OASIS requirements, the significance of collecting accurate data, and best practices for utilizing the OASIS-E1 guidance manual effectively.
To ensure comprehensive learning, the course incorporates
periodic knowledge checks throughout the module, culminating in a post-test to evaluate participant understanding and retention of the material.
