You are a healthcare administrator and have been tasked with the job of making improvements to one of the four PACs (mentioned in the textbook reading this week). One consideration to keep in mind when reviewing the PACs is how high-quality patient care can be delivered at a cost appropriate for the condition of your patients. In your initial post, select ONE of the four PACs described in the chapter. How does the PAC you chose address the consideration of balancing high-quality care with affordability for the patient?

The Four PACS (Post-Acute Care) to choose from :

1.Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs)

2.Long-term care hospitals (LTCHs)

3.Inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs)

4.Home health agencies (HHAs) (MedPAC 2017a, xvi)
