WARRENSBURG, Mo. (Nov. 30, 2021) – Johnson County Community Health Services (JCCHS) Home Health has been named a 2021 HHCAHPS Honors recipient by HEALTHCAREfirst.
HEALTHCAREfirst is a leading provider of web-based home health and hospice software, billing and coding services, CAHPS surveys and advanced analytics. This prestigious annual review recognizes agencies that continuously provide a positive patient experience and high quality care as measured from the patient’s point of view. It acknowledges the highest performing agencies by analyzing the performance of the Home Health Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HHCAHPS) survey satisfaction measures.
HHCAHPS Honors acknowledges the highest performing agencies. HHCAHPS qualifies an agency by analyzing performance on the Willingness to Recommend question of the survey. Once an agency is qualified, HHCAHPS then analyzes performance on 18 other questions that comprise the publicly reported measures from April 2020 through March 2021.
HHCAHPS Honors recipients include agencies scoring above the HEALTHCAREfirst National Average on at least 85 percent of the evaluated questions. HEALTHCAREfirst holds a special recognition, the HHCAHPS Honors Elite, to recognize home health agencies scoring above the HEALTHCAREfirst National Average on 100 percent of the evaluated questions.
