A recertification survey was conducted on 06/09/2026. The census was: Licensed and Certified Home Health Services: 0 Personal Assistance Services: 0 Abbreviations: Adm – Administrator Alt Adm – Alternate Administrator CMS – Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services HHA – home health agency IM – information management IQIES - Internet Quality Improvement and Evaluation System OASIS - Outcome and Assessment Information Set

Encoding and transmitting OASIS CFR(s): 484.45(a) Standard: An HHA must encode and electronically transmit each completed OASIS assessment to the CMS system, regarding each beneficiary with respect to which information is required to be transmitted (as determined by the Secretary), within 30 days of completing the assessment of the beneficiary. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on record review and interview, the agency failed to electronically transmit completed OASIS (a standardized data set tool used by CMS that measures the quality and outcomes of home health patients) assessments to the CMS system for all Medicare patients within 30 days of completing the OASIS assessment of the patient for 36% (81 of 225) of assessments reviewed that were transmitted during 03/31/2025 - 02/28/2026. This failure prevented the agency’s patient data from being made available to CMS within 30 days of the OASIS completion date for analysis to identify agency performance levels in the provision of patient care. Findings included: During pre-survey record review on 06/08/2026, the surveyor reviewed the agency OASIS report titled, “HHA Error Summary by Agency” from IQIES (an internet-based system utilized by the state that includes survey and certification functions for home health and hospice) for the period of 03/31/2025 - 02/28/2026. The report included 81 of 225 OASIS assessments (36%) with Error -3330 for OASIS assessments submitted more than 30 days of completing the OASIS assessment. During an interview with the Adm on 06/11/2026 at 12:05 PM, the surveyor asked why 81 of 225 OASIS assessments (36%) were submitted more than 30 days after the assessment completion date and why agency policy had not been followed. The Adm stated he and the Alt Adm went back and forth with the nurses trying to get them to finalize the OASIS assessments in the system after the assessments had been through the agency’s quality assurance process, but lots of the nurses were contracted with the agency so getting them to complete things on time while they also worked somewhere else was challenging. The Adm also stated employees that worked in the office were not submitting the assessments to CMS on time. Agency policy titled, “Timelines IM.35” with a last reviewed date of 01/01/2026 read in part, “… OASIS data… will be transmitted via electronic communication software… to the CMS collection site within 30 days of the M0090 [completion] date…”
