2010-2014 Award Winner
R&A Home Health Services today announced that it has been named a Top Agency of the 2014 HomeCare Elite™, a recognition of the top-performing home health agencies in the United States.
Now in its forth year, the HomeCare Elite identifies the top 25 percent of Medicare-certified agencies and highlights the top 100 and top 500 agencies overall. Winners are ranked by an analysis of publicly available performance measures in quality outcomes, best practice (process measure) implementation, patient experience (Home Health CAHPS®), quality improvement and consistency, and financial performance. In order to be considered, an agency must be Medicare-certified and have data for at least one outcome in Home Health Compare. Out of 9,969 agencies considered, 2,496 are elite.
The HomeCare Elite is published annually to recognize the top 25 percent of home care agencies based on publicly available performance measures," says Scott Smith, Director of Marketing, National Research Corporation. "We also further distinguish the top 100 and top 500 agencies. The list recognizes those agencies that are doing more to improve performance and outcomes for their patients.
