Medicare post acute care payments are rising rapidly

Post acute care payments often exhibit the greatest variability in total episode cost

Medicare profit margins for post acute care providers have been significantly higher than hospital Medicare margins.

Budgeting and management control require the development of realistic benchmarks for post acute care.

Critical drivers of episodic cost require extensive data analysis
