Home Health Agencies & Hospice Annual Utilization Report - Complete Data Set

Home Health Agencies (HHA) provide at home skilled nursing, personal care and therapeutic services. Hospices provide palliative care and alleviate the physical, emotional, social and spiritual discomforts of an individual who is experiencing the last phases of life due to the existence of a terminal disease. In addition, hospices provide supportive care for the primary care giver and the family of the hospice patient. Home health agencies and hospices submit an annual utilization report to the Office at the end of each calendar year. The report includes information on services capacity, visits, utilization, patient characteristics, and capital/equipment expenditures, and gross revenues. The documentation, including report forms, is available for each reporting year.
