Industry News: CMS FACE TO FACE REQUIREMENTS DELAYED
December 23rd, 2010

CMS REQUIREMENT DELAYED

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) notified NAHC that instructions have been sent to its contractors advising them that home health agencies and hospices are to be allowed to use the first quarter of 2011 to implement procedures to meet face to face encounters requirements. Basically, this results in a delay of the implementation of the regulation.

Please check back with HealthCare Strategies as more information is released.
