“Comprehensive Assessment of Patients CFR(s): 484.55 Condition of participation: Comprehensive assessment of patients. Each patient must receive, and an HHA must provide, a patient-specific, comprehensive assessment. For Medicare beneficiaries, the HHA must verify the patient’s eligibility for the Medicare home health benefit including homebound status, both at the time of the initial assessment visit and at the time of the comprehensive assessment. This Condition is not met as evidenced by: Based on provider and agency staff interviews, clinical record review and agency policy review, the agency failed to ensure comprehensive assessments included the patient’s current health, psychosocial, functional, and cognitive status. The cumulative effects of these systemic practices resulted in placing patients at risk of not receiving safe, individualized and consistent care designed to meet each patients health needs.”

“Care planning, coordination, quality of care CFR(s): 484.60 Condition of participation: Care planning, coordination of services, and quality of care. Patients are accepted for treatment on the reasonable expectation that an HHA can meet the patient’s medical, nursing, rehabilitative, and social needs in his or her place of residence. Each patient must receive an individualized written plan of care, including any revisions or additions. The individualized plan of care must specify the care and services necessary to meet the patient-specific needs as identified in the comprehensive assessment, including identification of the responsible discipline(s), and the measurable outcomes that the HHA anticipates will occur as a result of implementing and coordinating the plan of care. The individualized plan of care must also specify the patient and caregiver education and training. Services must be furnished in accordance with accepted standards of practice. This Condition is not met as evidenced by: Based on clinical record review, agency policy review and agency staff interview, the agency: 1) failed to include all required components of the Plan of Care (G574); and 2) failed to provide medications, treatments and services only as ordered by a physician (G580). The cumulative systemic practices resulted in the failure to ensure the organizational framework of the agency promoted and supported the coordination of safe and effective delivery of care to the agency’s 144 patients.”
