Me personally, as a practice manager I am more inclined to refer to a
facility for rehabilitation and home health agency when I can develop a trusting relationship
with the representative. We deal with a lot of Home Health and Ostomy Nurses, I want to make
sure my patients are taken care of and that the doctors are being informed of any changes with
the patient. I want to get a phone call immediately of any changes, not reading about it in a daily
progress note. As for payers, this is a tricky relationship to build. Many health organizations try
to build relationship with their area representative with the insurance carriers they participate
with. I know, when I was doing credentialing for a health organization I built a relationship with
the area representative to help me out with any credentialing issues and contract issues. By
building this relationship, when issues did arise I was able to speak with the representative. I
was also able to put the patients mind at ease by letting them know I was speaking to a direct
representative with their insurance company and not just a customer service representative. Also
by building this relationship, I am better able to address any questions or concerns regarding
specific plans without having to direct them to the 800 number on the back of their card.

Rio Grande Medical Center is a full service not-for-profit acute care hospital with 325 beds. Most of the hospital’s facilities are devoted to inpatient care and emergency services, but a 100,000-square-foot section of the hospital is devoted to outpatient (OP) services. Of the 100,000-square-foot OP section, the OP Clinic uses 80%/80,000-square-feet, and the remaining 20%/20,000-square-feet are used by the Dialysis Center.

Competition in the home health field is intense, particularly in rural areas, where the need for services is in more demand. Because services are expensive to provide, it is critical for agencies to generate a volume of visits sufficient to cover fixed expenses plus make a small profit. Competition is primarily between another company Care One, Inc., a multicounty operation that has been established in the area for well over 10 years. AHHS surpassed them in total number of visits after its second year of operation and has been progressively growing. Many of the physicians in the area, however, continue to use Care One, and Care One receives more referrals from the local hospitals than AHHS. Currently AHHS has 32 employees, including 15 registered nurses, 8 nursing aides, 1 physical therapist, I speech language therapist, and 7 administrative staff.
Hospital B was a not-for-profit organization, located in west side of town.
