Senior Helpers of Panama City

A home health agency in Panama City, Florida

Also listedWith Florida’s licensed agencies Medicare doesn’t certify

Besides the agencies CMS certifies, Florida’s list here holds the home health agencies AHCA licenses that Medicare doesn’t certify: those its comparison page lists as “Not Certified”, “Medicaid Certified” or “Medicaid Private Duty Nursing”. CMS’s star ratings and inspections don’t cover them; each says so, with AHCA’s own counts, and is compared with none.

The short answer

Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.

What these words mean2
Inspection (survey)
A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
Deficiency, citation, violation
What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.

What did inspectors find?

AHCA counts 0 deficiencies for this agency: 0 Class 1, 0 Class 2, 0 Class 3 and 0 Class 4.

AHCA’s comparison page counts each agency’s deficiencies by Florida’s classes, from Class 1 (the most serious) to Class 4, with its substantiated complaints and sanctions, and doesn’t say what period its counts cover. Each agency’s inspection reports are on AHCA’s own site.

Who does the caring?

  • Florida publishes no staffing levels in this list, and CMS’s staffing measures cover only certified agencies.

Who owns it?

  • This list doesn’t name owners.

How do patients fare?

  • CMS rates only Medicare-certified agencies, so no CMS rating is shown here; Florida publishes no rating in this list.

How does it compare nearby?

  • Not compared: CMS’s measures cover only the home health agencies Medicare certifies, and this state’s list publishes no measure of its own to compare.

What the record doesn’t say

  • Florida licenses every home health agency, and AHCA’s comparison page lists them all with their certification status. This page is one of those AHCA lists as “Not Certified”, “Medicaid Certified” or “Medicaid Private Duty Nursing”: not Medicare-certified, and so in none of CMS’s files. An agency CMS lists by the same name in the same city, and one AHCA gives no certification status, is left out, so none is listed twice or called what AHCA doesn’t say.
  • CMS’s files list only the home health agencies Medicare certifies, so no CMS star rating, survey or inspection covers this one, and none is shown or compared.
  • AHCA’s comparison page counts each agency’s deficiencies by Florida’s classes, from Class 1 (the most serious) to Class 4, with its substantiated complaints and sanctions, and doesn’t say what period its counts cover. Each agency’s inspection reports are on AHCA’s own site.
