What these words mean3
- 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.
- Condition-level deficiency
- For hospices, home health agencies, hospitals and dialysis facilities, CMS writes deficiencies at two levels. Standard is the usual one; condition-level is the more serious, when a problem is serious enough that the provider doesn’t meet a whole condition of taking part in Medicare. Source: CMS, State Operations Manual.

Basis And Scope
The inspectors’ words, 330 words
“Basis and Scope CFR(s): §484.1 Basis and Scope (a) Basis. This part is based on: (1) Sections 1861(o) and 1891 of the Act, which establish the conditions that an HHA must meet in order to participate in the Medicare program and which, along with the additional requirements set forth in this part, are considered necessary to ensure the health and safety of patients; and (2) Section 1861(z) of the Act, which specifies the institutional planning standards that HHAs must meet. (b) Scope. The provisions of this part serve as the basis for survey activities for the purpose of determining whether an agency meets the requirements for participation in the Medicare program. This Condition is not met as evidenced by: Based on record review and interview, the agency failed to primarily provide services to skilled patients, per federal regulation requirements, for 19 of 19 patients served. Findings include: A review of OASIS reporting history revealed the agency has not submitted evidence of serving skilled patients since 12/10/2021. During an entrance interview with Substitute Administrator A on 06/09/2025 at 10:00 AM it was determined that the agency has the capacity to serve skilled patients and employs a Registered Nurse (RN) and a Home Health Aide. Zero skilled services had been provided to patients since last recertification survey on 07/05/2022. Currently the agency provides personal care services (PCA) (nonskilled) to 19 patients. Substitute Administrator A stated that it had been, “maybe 3 years” since the agency last served a skilled patient. During a phone interview with Administrator B on 06/09/2025 at 11:15 AM Administrator B confirmed that the agency was not serving any skilled patients. When asked why the agency hasn’t served any skilled patients since 2021, Administrator B stated, “We have just been focusing on personal care” and stated that the agency is interested in serving skilled patients in the near future and did not want to seek voluntary termination of their Medicare certification and state licensure to pursue a PCA certification.”

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. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System.: “The number of patient episodes for this measure is too small to report.”

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.
