Benchmarking Reports Now Available!

The 2010 HW&Co. Medicaid Benchmarking Reports are now available! This Benchmarking Report, prepared from the 2010 Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) Medicaid cost report database, contains a detailed analysis of 2010 expenses, census, and staffing data from your facility combined with a comparative analysis of selected peers, county, peer group and statewide averages. These reports provide a unique value-added service:

PLANNING: With the reimbursement cuts most providers have experienced as a result of HB 153, it is more important than ever for facilities to identify areas of potential inefficiencies. Our Benchmarking Report provides a comprehensive overview of your facility’s expenses, census, and staffing patterns that is presented in a format that provides for an easy comparison to your peers. This feature makes the HW&Co. Benchmarking Report an integral starting point for strategic planning and budgeting sessions.

CUSTOMIZATION: Each Benchmarking Report contains the following information:

§  Per Diem Expenses

§  Census

§  Average Hourly Wages

§  Full Time Equivalents

§  Hours per Resident Day

§  Facility Medicaid-only and overall case scores

Our Benchmarking Reports can be customized to give you the comparisons that mean the most to your facility. In comparing your facility, you have the option to select comparative data within the following categories:

§  Selected Competitors

§  County Average

§  Peer Group Average

§  State Wide Average
