WASHINGTON DC, USA -- HEALTHCARE UPDATE NEWS SERVICE™ -- OCTOBER 14, 2026: The Hospital at Home regulatory landscape is shifting, from this year's extension of the Acute Hospital Care at Home (AHCaH) waiver to the growing call for Medicaid coverage in every state. Programs across the country are trying to make sense of what these changes mean and optimize their operations accordingly.

The policy update session at the 2026 Users Group Annual Meeting, Opportunity Knocks: Welcoming the Future of Hospital at Home, will provide attendees with a clearer picture of where things stand and what comes next.

This year's session brings together two of the field's foremost voices on HaH policy: Dr. Ashby Wolfe, lead physician for the CMS AHCaH iniative, and Lisa Tripp, partner at Tripp Hollander Advisors.

FEATURING A POLICY UPDATE SESSION WITH:

Ashby Wolfe, MD, MPP, MPH

Lisa Tripp, JD

  • What do programs need to know about HaH quality benchmarking and the forthcoming CMS study?
