Therapists’ Impressions of the Implementation of the Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) in Home Health Care


 Date Presented 04/02/2022
 In January 2020, the Patient-Driven Grouping Model (PDGM) was enacted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). A survey research design was used to gather OT practitioners’ impressions of the impact the PDGM had on home care services. Participants (N = 31) were recruited from six states, and the American Occupational Therapy Association reported decreased control of the frequency of home health visits and decreased quality and clinical autonomy.
