For many of us, this time of year serves as an opportunity to reflect on what we are thankful for; the company of our loved ones, our personal health and safety, or the resiliency of our communities. This year at VNAs of Vermont we are thankful for the dedicated nurses, therapists and other staff who provide compassionate home health and hospice care to our families, friends and neighbors.
In early November the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued the Final Rule regarding Medicare home health services payment rates for CY 2024.
