I believe each younger generation is the current generation future so we should teach our children right and watch them grow. We should support our children to the highest standard and let them know to never be afraid to want to know more. We should encourage our children to do their best and try their best at all times. I say this because our children need us they need us to let them know they are safe and that we will not harm them in any way. I want to know why and how some people could ever harm a child.

There are four areas that offer home health care services but operate independently of each other: Banner Home Care, Hospice Care, Pharmacy, and Medical Equipment. Three departments within the company that cover all four areas are Finance, Human Resources and Planning. Despite their independence, each department follows the same home health administrative structure. All new orders begin in the intake department where patient information is gathered, including patient assessments and physician’s orders. The patient’s file is then sent to the scheduling department to determine the best time for the patient and Banner Home Health. Once the scheduling has been finalized, the file is forwarded to the insurance team where the patient’s insurance is verified and prior authorization is established. From there the clinical team takes over and performs the number and type of visits prescribed by the physician. Once the number of prescribed visits has been completed, the file is transferred to the claim’s department where the insurance company is billed for services rendered. Finally, once the claims forms have been sent to the insurance company, the file is sent to the collections/accounts receivable department where the file is monitored until full payment has been received.
