Conditions of Participation Webinars 

Donna Floyd, RN, BSN, Home Care Consultant and co-owner of The Crag Business Group, presented 90 minute webinars on CoPs and the number of key changes that will impact home health agencies. Recordings of these two webinars are available for free to members. 

Revisions of the Home Health Agency provider requirements:

• Focus on a patient-centered, data-driven, outcome-oriented process that promotes high quality patient care at all times for all patients
• Objective would be to achieve a balanced regulatory approach by ensuring that a HHA furnished health care that met essential health and quality standards, while ensuring this it monitored and improved its own performance.
• The requirements focus on the care delivered to patients by HHAs, reflect an interdisciplinary view of patient care, allow HHAs greater flexibility in meeting quality care standards, and eliminate unnecessary procedural requirements. These changes are an integral part of our overall effort to achieve broad-based, measurable improvements in the quality of care furnished through the Medicare and Medicaid programs, while at the same time eliminating unnecessary procedural burdens on providers.
