Coalition Pushes Congress To Extend Extension of Hospital-at-Home Waiver

A coalition of 140 healthcare stakeholders, led by MHH, is advocating for Congress to secure a five-year extension of the Acute Hospital Care at Home (AHCaH) waiver program, which has proven beneficial for Medicare beneficiaries. The program, part of bipartisan policy for the past five years, has demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing patient outcomes, reducing costs, and improving satisfaction by allowing patients to receive care at home. The stakeholders argue that continued federal support is essential for health systems to invest in and expand this transformative model of care, which aligns with Americans' preference for home-based health services. This initiative underscores the critical role of innovative healthcare technology and policy in addressing evolving patient needs.
