The additional grouper for Skilled Nursing, sometimes referred to as (PDPM), is used for classifying SNF patients in a covered Part A stay.

This grouper is included with our Home Health Grouper. 

Current groupers/calculators include:

• Home Health PDGM (Patient-Driven Grouping Model)
• Skilled Nursing Facility PDPM (Patient-Driven Payment Model)

What is it?

According to CMS, In July 2018, CMS finalized a new case-mix classification model, the Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM), that, effective beginning October 1, 2019, will be used under the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Prospective Payment System (PPS) for classifying SNF patients in a covered Part A stay.
