Corporate Entities and Multiple Provider Numbers: Survey Implications for Home Health Agencies and Hospices is proudly presented to you by National Association for Home Care & Hospice. Thank you. We hope that you enjoy your course.
Survey deficiencies have increased in both home health and hospice, a trend related to how operations are handled in corporate entities, whether large or small. These deficiencies are often at the condition level and can come as a surprise to the provider, since many have been operating in much the same way for years without deficiencies. This webinar will review the practices that are causing the deficiencies, discuss why they are now being viewed as a deficient practice, and tell you how to revise practices to minimize the risk of survey deficiencies. Examples from actual surveys will be shared.
Learning Outcomes:
- Locate applicable federal conditions of participation and requirements.
- Explain the current CMS interpretation and expectations for proper administration of multiple provider numbers and/or provider types (i.e. home health and hospice).
- Apply the current interpretation and expectations at your own organization.
