Physician or qualified providers must document face-to-face encounters with patients and docHub that the patient meets the criteria for home care and has a defined need for homecare services. A face-to-face encounter and homecare certification form must be provided to the homecare agency prior to admission.
Hospitals and rehab facilities are key referral sources, as patients often need continued care after being discharged. Build strong connections with discharge planners to ensure seamless transitions for patients requiring homecare services.
Leaving the home is difficult and/or exhausting: Walking or moving requires assistance of another person or an assistive device (wheelchair, walker, etc.) The patient is only able to leave home periodically to receive medical care, pick up medications, shop for groceries, or attend to other necessities.
A referral is when your PCM or provider sends you to get care from another provider. This typically happens when you need specialty care. Your provider starts the process by sending a referral request to your regional contractor for review.
Once your provider refers you for home health services, the home health agency will schedule an appointment to talk to you about your needs and ask you some questions about your health. The home health agency staff will talk to your doctor or other provider about your care plan and keep them updated on your progress.
