2026 Reimbursement Collaborative: Strategic Solutions for QIP and PDPM Success - From Progress to Permanence – Sustaining Results Beyond the Collaborative

June 18, 2026 | Live Webinar 

Through the LeadingAge Ohio Reimbursement Collaborative, we help providers prove that it's not only possible to achieve high quality ratings and strong reimbursement, but also strategic. High quality and high case mix aren’t mutually exclusive. This collaborative shows how aligning core strategies can strengthen both, because quality and reimbursement should work hand in hand. Additionally, LeadingAge Ohio is excited to share that participants will meet the new Ohio Administrative Code language for the Nursing Home Quality Initiative found in Chapter 173-60 of the OAC by participating in this collaborative. 

The Reimbursement Collaborative will support nursing homes in responding to Ohio’s changes in Medicaid reimbursement. This collaborative will focus on aligning strategies that impact both quality performance and reimbursement outcomes. Each session will help participants identify where QIP measures and PDPM classifications intersect and how system-level changes can drive improvement across both. Participants will also receive facility-specific QIP and PDPM reports to guide data-driven decision-making throughout the series.

This final session will help participants translate their progress into next-step strategies for continued improvement while also providing updated July 1st projections to inform planning. Teams will review key insights, celebrate successes, and outline practical actions to support sustained momentum. The session will reinforce that a positive workforce culture where staff feel invested and included, is critical to sustaining improvements and navigating future changes.
