The Solution

Transforming Coding Accuracy for Stronger, Measurable Results

Preserving Independence with Professional, Compassionate Care

Bethany Village Home Health Care, part of Graceworks Lutheran Services, is dedicated to serving seniors in the Dayton, Ohio community who wish to age in their homes. Through several services including home health, hospice, skilled nursing and assisted living, they deliver personalized, high-quality care centered on dignity, comfort and well-being.

Committed to providing both compliant and exceptional care, Bethany Village recognized the importance of keeping pace with ongoing changes in home health documentation requirements.

McBee has given us the opportunity to provide data driven, high quality care for the patients that we serve. Success for me looks like our patients thriving daily. The partnership with McBee is what helps us with that opportunity.”

- Dana Albaugh, Director, Bethany Village Home Health Care.


Navigating Regulatory Change with a Trusted Coding Ally

As OASIS regulations and guidelines continue to evolve, Bethany Village recognized the need for deeper expertise and broader support to help maintain quality and compliance. In their search for an ally with proven expertise in OASIS documentation and coding accuracy, they turned to McBee (part of Netsmart). The decades of knowledge and strong understanding of the post-acute regulatory landscape that McBee coders bring to the table led Bethany Village to move forward with McBee OASIS & Coding Services.

From the beginning, the relationship was built on collaboration. McBee provided guidance on OASIS documentation to help support accurate, compliant coding. Alongside OASIS reviews and coding support, Bethany Village is leveraging Post-Acute Academy, an online education platform within the McBee coding portfolio. Post-Acute Academy became a foundational tool for onboarding and developing clinicians, aimed at equipping staff with the education needed to navigate OASIS requirements.

The biggest thing that stands out most from McBee’s support is that it is truly a trusted collaboration. We have meetings every other week. They’re digging into our reports and telling my company and my staff what we need to do to make things better. If we don’t know what we need to do, they’re going to help. They’re going to walk us through the process.”

- Dana Albaugh, Director, Bethany Village Home Health Care.


Driving Measurable Performance and Clinician Confidence

What began as a need for deeper expertise quickly became a transformational shift in performance. By leveraging McBee OASIS & Coding Services, Bethany Village clinicians can focus less on documentation challenges and more on delivering high-quality care in the community. Meanwhile, Post-Acute Academy provides targeted, accessible education. Leaders assign focused training based on documentation trends and review findings, directly connecting education to performance improvement.

Together, Bethany Village and McBee have created a foundation aimed at sustained quality, stronger outcomes and continued excellence in home health and hospice care.

The result: a 4x increase in their OASIS-based measures* and a care team better equipped to navigate regulatory demands with confidence.
