Federal surveys with at least one deficiency
Findings against a Condition of Participation — a compliance grade, not a measure of harm
What level the findings sit at
- Condition-level23.9%
- The agency was out of compliance with a federal Condition of Participation — a requirement it must meet to take part in Medicare at all.
- Standard-level2345.1%
- A requirement within a Condition of Participation. The Condition itself was not cited.
- Element-level2651.0%
- A specific element within a Standard. The finest level the home health programme grades at.
These are compliance grades, not harm grades: how deep in the regulation a finding sits, not whether anyone was harmed.
