VNA turns around finances with agency redesign
Douglas County based VNA, a nonprofit offering home care and hospice, posted a modest surplus after overhauling operations. Medicare changes and budget tweaks reduced staff and boosted billing, with 60 percent of home health and 86 percent of hospice funding tied to Medicare. New leadership retrained staff, updated accounting, and adopted a new computer system as interim director Donahue departs and executive director Bellome leads forward. Johnson lauded the turnaround, praising the efforts across the agency.
