Payment Procedures for Terminated HHAs

110.2 - Payment Procedures for Terminated HHAs (Rev. 10758; Issued: 05-11-21; Effective: 01-01-22; Implementation: 08-11-21) Medicare regulations allow that payment may be made for home health services for up to thirty days after a home health agency (HHA) terminates their Medicare provider agreement. This payment may be made if the home health services are furnished under a home health plan of care established before the effective date of the termination. Medicare continues to make full period of care payments for periods which extend beyond a provider’s termination date if the home health services are provided under a plan of care established prior to that date and if the home health period of care ends within the 30 day period.
