Don't get left at the starting line... gear up now for PDPM
Texas SNFs, are you ready for the PDPM green flag?
A major shift is coming to Texas Medicaid reimbursement, and the countdown is almost over. Join our LTC expert panel for a fast-paced, insight-packed webinar designed to prepare your facility for the move to the Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM).
This isn’t a drill—it’s the final lap before a new reimbursement reality takes hold. Beginning Sept. 1, Texas Medicaid will adopt PDPM for skilled nursing facility reimbursement. For providers, this means:
- New documentation expectations
- Greater focus on resident characteristics
- Big changes in how therapy and nursing services impact payment
- Heightened OIG scrutiny – especially for respiratory therapy
Failing to prepare could mean costly delays or compliance risks. This webinar is your pre-race inspection, a chance to fine-tune systems, align your team, and ensure you’re ready for go-time.
What You’ll Learn
- Key Drivers: Understand the PDPM components that will carry the most financial weight under Texas Medicaid
- Strategic Planning: Build a “race plan” tailored to your resident mix and service delivery
- Compliance Pit Stop: Evaluate documentation and workflows for readiness
- Respiratory Therapy Readiness: Navigate risk areas and ensure audit protection
- HHSC Updates: Get the latest intel straight from policy experts
Who Should Attend?
- DONs/ADONs
- Nursing Home Administrators
- MDS Coordinators
- Therapy Directors
- Compliance and Billing Professionals
- Any team member responsible for Medicaid reimbursement
