In both skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) and home health (HH), older adults rely on physical and occupational therapy to regain function. In 2024, CMS elevated the importance of functional outcomes by adopting the Discharge Function Score across the HH Expanded VBP Model, SNF QRP, and SNF VBP, directly tying payment to patient progress. This session gives PTs and OTs a clear, practical overview of the measure, how it is calculated, and why it matters. Attendees will learn actionable strategies for integrating the score into daily practice, strengthening documentation, and ensuring that each patient's functional gains are accurately captured. Participants will leave prepared to collaborate with their agencies and facilities to improve quality and performance, and to highlight the essential value of rehabilitation in post-acute care.

Implicit Bias: Impact on Maternal Health in Minority Populations
Presented by Calista Kelly, PT, DPT, ACEEAA, Cert. MDT
Text/Transcript
Course: #5565Level: Introductory1 Hour
This text course examines how implicit bias and structural racism contribute to disparities in maternal and infant health among minority populations in the United States. It defines and differentiates implicit and explicit bias, explains how bias forms and operates within clinical relationships and power differentials, and connects these forces to structural racism and to documented patterns of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. Learners explore the most recent national data on these disparities, including the populations at highest and least visible risk, and the everyday clinical moments where bias is most likely to influence care. The course then turns to practical, evidence-informed strategies that individuals, teams, and systems can use to recognize and reduce the impact of bias and structural racism on childbearing patients and their infants. This course was designed for an interprofessional audience.
