Seema Verma served as the Administrator of CMS from 2017-2021, and she is stressing the importance of home-based care programs.

“The shift to home-based care is a positive development,” Verma told Home Health Care News. “The advent of new technology, from telehealth to remote patient monitoring, is supporting the rapid adoption of home-based care.” “As CMS administrator, I made it a priority to tear down bureaucratic barriers to promote innovation, and I wanted to continue that focus in the private sector,” Verma explained. “WellSky is a leader in innovative health care technology and analytics that power better outcomes and lower costs for stakeholders across the health and community care continuum.
