Episodic Payment System and Home Health Prospective Payment System

HERDS (Health Electronic Response Data System) v.3 webinar training CTI-119 is now available through DOH’s Learning Management System (LMS).

As a condition for payment, the Affordable Care Act mandates that prior to certifying a patient’s eligibility for the home health benefit, the certifying physician must document that he or she, or an allowed non-physician practitioner (NPP) has had a face-to-face encounter with the patient.
