The new Home Health Conditions of Participation (CoPs) are here! In order to be successful, home health agencies should be prepared. You should identify elements of the revised Home Health CoPs that will require action by your home health agency. You may need to address job descriptions, qualifications, and duties, as well as create or amend policies, procedures, forms, and processes. HEALTHCAREfirst has created this Home Health CoPs resource hub to give you the latest information through FAQs, guides, blog posts, and recorded webinars.
