title: Keeping care costs in line under managed care.
abstract: The intricacies of managing a home health organization with a growing managed care patient population require both astute analysis of current market conditions and aggressive business and strategic planning. Many agencies accomplish the analysis and begin to plan, but often fail to reach the pivotal execution phase and ongoing analysis of internal processes and outcomes. It's not an easy process, but one that will reap great rewards.
