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
The inspectors’ words, 630 words
“Plan of care CFR(s): 484.60(a)(1) Each patient must receive the home health services that are written in an individualized plan of care that identifies patient-specific measurable outcomes and goals, and which is established, periodically reviewed, and signed by a doctor of medicine, osteopathy, or podiatry acting within the scope of his or her state license, certification, or registration. If a physician or allowed practitioner refers a patient under a plan of care that cannot be completed until after an evaluation visit, the physician or allowed practitioner is consulted to approve additions or modifications to the original plan. This Standard is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview, record review and policy review, the facility failed to ensure each patient received home health services that are written in the plan of care for one of three patients reviewed (Patient #13). This could affect all patients receiving services from the agency. The census was 13. Findings include: Review of Patient #13’s medical record revealed an 08/10/22 start of care date. Review the certification period dated 10/04/23 to 12/02/23 revealed the patient was to receive 20 hours of home health aide services weekly. The home health aide was to assist with personal care, activities of daily living, light housekeeping as needed, shower, grooming, dressing and skin care. Review the home health aide (HHA) timesheet revealed the patient was to receive services Monday through Friday from 4:00 P.M. till 8:00 P.M. The timesheet did not have any time entered for 10/24/23. The last time sheet for the patient was through 10/27/23. The patient was not to receive services on the weekend 10/28/23 or 10/29/23. The patient did not receive services on 10/30/23, 10/31/23, 11/01/23, 11/02/23 or 11/03/23. There was no evidence of missed visit forms. There was no evidence the agency notified the physician of the missed visits until 11/03/23. There was a Communication Note dated 11/03/23 stating the physician put the services on hold because the current aide had an emergency and taken some days off. The agency was trying to provide alternate aide care to cover the shift until aide returned to work. On 12/02/23 the patient was discharged from the agency due to the agency having difficulty meeting the needs of the patient. Interview on 12/11/23 at 4:05 P.M. with Staff AA verified the patient did not receive the service hours as per plan of care. Staff AA further verified the physician was not notified until 11/03/23 of the missed days on 10/24/23, 10/30/23, 10/31/23, 11/01/23 and 11/02/23. He indicated the facility did not know of the missed visits until 10/31/23 when they looked at the patient’s weekly time sheet brought in by the HHA. Review of the employee handbook revealed the Attendance and Tardiness protocol was to ensure timely and consistent care and services is provided to the patient population served by Liberty Home Healthcare of Ohio agency. Any absenteeism or tardiness is to be communicated to the staff member supervisor in a timely manner. Excessive absenteeism and or tardiness may result in disciplinary action up to the including termination and may have an adverse effect on the staff members future salary increase transfer request promotion or continued employment. Each staff member including contracted personnel is responsible for reporting any absence or tardiness to his or her immediate supervisor in a timely manner according to departmental guidelines to allow the supervisor to plan for alternate staff coverage. Review of the policy titled, Provider Notification Process, effective 09/22/15, revealed to be in compliance with agency guidelines to monitor service delivery and notifying the physician and case manager of any service delivery problems, Liberty Home Healthcare of Ohio shall maintain a provider missed visit form and document reasons for the missed visits. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Substantial Allegation 102452.”

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.
