As part of our annual March on Washington next week, home care advocates from across Texas will be on Capitol Hill visiting with Members of Congress to promote home care as the solution for health care. TAHC&H is hosting a Virtual Lobby Day for all who cannot be in Washington, D.C. next week so mark your calendars for Tuesday, March 20th! We will be educating legislative offices about Home Care and Hospice services and our 2018 Home Health Priorities and 2018 Hospice Priorities.

We will be asking you to contact your federal legislators in support of the issues below:

  • Support Home Health and patients choice to be in the lowest health care cost setting where they feel most comfortable-their homes
  • Support Needed Corrections and Clarifications to Medicare Home Health Payment Reform Act of 2018 Sec. 51001 & 51002 of the Budget Act
  • Support Appropriate rural home health access and funding to reach those patient
  • Support appropriate reimbursement for Hospice providers

More information on how to be a part of this event will be sent out next week!  We look forward to your participation!
