Medicare & Medicaid Program: Conditions Of Participation For Home Health Agencies

On January 13, 2017, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released this Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) on conditions of participation in the Medicare and Medicaid program for home health agencies (HHAs).
