Beebe Services Named as a Top Agency

 

Beebe Healthcare Home Care Services has been named a Top Agency of the 2015 HomeCare Elite, a recognition of the top-performing home health agencies in the United States. Now in its 10th year, the HomeCare Elite identifies the top 25 percent of Medicare-certified agencies and highlights the top 100 and top 500 agencies overall.

“The 2015 HomeCare Elite winners deserve credit for demonstrating high-quality care in their communities,” said Christine Lang, Vice President of Product Development for OCS HomeCare. National Research Corporation’s OCS HomeCare and DecisionHealth sponsor the annual award.

“As quality care initiatives become top-of-mind for healthcare providers, we recognize this as a remarkable achievement and are pleased to make this our 10th year of acknowledgement for top performing home health organizations. We congratulate Beebe Home Care Services on being one of the top home care agencies in the country.”

Dana Warrington, RN, Director of Beebe Home Care Services, credits her staff’s commitment to excellence and its compassion for patients and their families for the agency’s ability to achieve recognition as one of the HomeCare Elite.

“We are honored to have received this award for the fourth consecutive year,” Mrs. Warrington said.

“Happy 10th anniversary to the winners of the HomeCare Elite,” said Marci Heydt, Senior Content Manager, DecisionHealth. “As CMS ramps up its nationwide initiatives to reward home care agencies for the quality of care they provide, this is yet another way to acknowledge those agencies that have demonstrated their commitment to improving patient care at lower costs. The winners of the HomeCare Elite Award are proving that a heightened focus on clinical outcomes, patient experience, and financial management leads to success.”

Top agencies are ranked by an analysis of publicly available performance measures in quality outcomes, best practice implementation, patient experience (Home Health CAHPS®), quality improvement and consistency, and financial performance. To be considered, an agency must be Medicare-certified and have data for at least one outcome in Home Health Compare. Out of 9,718 agencies considered, 2,431 are elite.
