AAH releases Impact Report 

WASHINGTON – AAHomecare and its members secured $4.5 billion in HME wins from 2022-24, delivering tangible ROI for the industry, according to the association’s 2024 Impact Report. 

Those wins include payer and policy changes that impact reimbursement and operations, new tools to navigate industry challenges, and collaboration across the HME community, AAHomecare says. 

“This is about real-world impact—not just for the HME industry, but for the end users and families who rely on home-based care every day,” said Tom Ryan, president and CEO of AAHomecare. “Our 2024 Impact Report demonstrates what’s possible when our industry comes together, reflecting the strength of our community and the critical role AAHomecare plays in advancing HME priorities. As we look ahead to 2025, we’re focused on continuing to deliver meaningful results for the HME community.” 

Key takeaways from the report include: 

• Advocacy wins that matter – From reimbursement relief to regulatory progress at the federal and state levels, these victories keep businesses operational and protect end user access to care. Examples: Streamlined ordering for PAP and RAD, and updated coding and payment rules for power seat elevation systems. 
• Member resources that deliver results – Educational tools and council initiatives to help the HME community address emerging trends and operational challenges while strengthening their businesses. Examples: Educational webinars, conference presentations and white papers. 
• Building a stronger community – A collective effort from members and staff that amplifies the HME voice at every level. Examples: Stand Up for Homecare and Leadership Legislative Conference.
