CMS Interpretative Guidelines for the Home Health CoPs (Room Texas 1-3)

CMS issued the Final Home Health Conditions of Participation (HHCoPs) which went into effect on January 13, 2018.  These HHCoPs contain the first major revision of several areas since 1989.  The rule expands standards for patient rights, care planning and care coordination and creates 2 new requirements -- one for a quality assessment and performance improvement program (QAPI) and another for an infection control program.
Join Mary Carr to review and gain an understanding of the important sections of CMS’s Interpretive Guidelines for these new updated regulations that will equip agency staff with tools necessary to help ensure compliance.
