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.

Plan Of Care Must Include The Following
The inspectors’ words, 444 words
“Plan of care must include the following CFR(s): 484.60(a)(2)(i-xvi) The individualized plan of care must include the following: (i) All pertinent diagnoses; (ii) The patient’s mental, psychosocial, and cognitive status; (iii) The types of services, supplies, and equipment required; (iv) The frequency and duration of visits to be made; (v) Prognosis; (vi) Rehabilitation potential; (vii) Functional limitations; (viii) Activities permitted; (ix) Nutritional requirements; (x) All medications and treatments; (xi) Safety measures to protect against injury; (xii) A description of the patient’s risk for emergency department visits and hospital re-admission, and all necessary interventions to address the underlying risk factors. (xiii) Patient and caregiver education and training to facilitate timely discharge; (xiv) Patient-specific interventions and education; measurable outcomes and goals identified by the HHA and the patient; (xv) Information related to any advanced directives; and (xvi) Any additional items the HHA or physician or allowed practitioner may choose to include. This Element is not met as evidenced by: Based on record review and interview, the agency failed to ensure the individualized plan of care included the duration of visits to be made for three of three patients reviewed for home health aide services (Patient #1, #2, and #3). This could affect all patients receiving services from the agency. The patient census was 52. Findings include: 1. Review of Patient #1’s physician ordered plan of care for the certification period dated 07/06/23 through 09/03/23 revealed orders for home health aide (HHA) services three times a week for 60 days to assist with personal care, and ADL’s. The plan of care did not specify the number of hours (duration) the HHA was to provide weekly. Review of the physician ordered plan of care for the certification period dated 09/04/23 through 11/02/23 revealed orders for HHA services five times a week to assist with personal care, and ADL’s. The plan of care did not specify the number of hours (duration) the HHA was to provide weekly. Interview with the Administrator on 12/12/23 at 10:00 AM revealed that Patient #1 was to receive 20 hours of HHA services and it had been this way since 04/13/22. 2. Review of Patient #2’s physician ordered plan of care for the certification period dated 11/03/23 through 01/01/23 revealed orders for HHA services two times a week for 60 days. The plan of care did not specify the number of hours (duration) the HHA was to provide weekly. 3. Review of Patient #3’s physician ordered plan of care for the certification period dated 10/15/23 through 12/13/23 revealed orders for HHA services seven times a week. The plan of care did not specify the number of hours (duration) the HHA was to provide weekly.”

How do patients fare?
- CMS gives no CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care.

What the record doesn’t say
- CMS doesn’t publish fines or other penalties for home health agencies, so none are shown.
- Only complaints that led to a citation appear; complaints that didn’t aren’t published.
- QCOR says some of its home health reports are accurate or available only through May 19, 2021, because of a systems migration.
- Many home health agencies are inspected by a private accrediting organisation instead of the state, and QCOR’s home health file doesn’t appear to include those inspections: no inspection on record here doesn’t mean none took place.
