Implementation of Rehabilitation at Home

Grant Summary

This project will refine the Rehabilitation at Home care model and propose a new payment mechanism within Medicare to enable more older adults to receive post-acute rehabilitation services at home, improving quality and cost outcomes. The Rehabilitation at Home care model grew out of the Hospital at Home program, developed with funding from The John A. Hartford Foundation. The model provides safe, high-quality rehabilitative and medical care in the home, the setting patients often prefer.
