The study invites agencies to provide input on the industry’s most pressing issues

BerryDunn, a full-service accounting, tax, and consulting firm, is pleased to announce the National Healthcare at Home 2025 Best Practices Study. The study is conducted in partnership with the National Alliance for Care at Home, LeadingAge, and the Council of State Home Care and Hospice Associations.

First conducted in 2022, this important national research effort returns in 2025 to assess how home-based care providers are responding to the changing healthcare landscape. This year’s study will focus on critical issues facing the industry today, including:

• Healthcare and payment reform
• Medicare payment cuts
• The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in clinical and operational workflows
• Medicare Advantage saturation rates and their impact on agency operations
• Increasing regulatory scrutiny

“We are thrilled to bring this national study back to the industry in 2025,” said study co-chair Lindsay Doak, Director of Healthcare Research and Education at BerryDunn. “Home-based care remains a vital part of the healthcare system, and it’s essential that we continue to identify and share best practices that support agency success and improve patient care outcomes.”

The 2025 study will follow a three-phased approach. The first phase, currently underway, invites providers to suggest topics and priorities to guide the study design. Phase two will entail a comprehensive survey of nearly 1,000 agency leaders, followed by the phase three distribution of the resulting data and analysis. Providers interested in registering for the study and providing input on the study’s themes can complete this form.

Working with a National Steering Committee of industry leaders, the 2025 study will address the topics that matter most to agencies today. Doak added, “This study is designed to unite providers and industry leaders in a collective effort to strengthen home-based care. By learning from each other, we can drive real change that improves care delivery and patient outcomes nationwide.”

BerryDunn, a firm with broad expertise in healthcare research, education, and training, recognizes the significant scope of this national effort and is inviting some of the industry’s most innovative vendors and partners to join in supporting the study. Their collaboration will help expand the study’s reach, deepen its impact, and deliver meaningful insights to the healthcare-at-home community.
