Duration of Temporary Management

10007.4 - Duration of Temporary Management (Rev. 221; Issued: 05-10-24; Effective: 05-10-24; Implemetation:05-10-24) Temporary management continues until an HHA or hospice program is terminated by CMS, or achieves substantial compliance via an onsite survey, and is capable of remaining in substantial compliance, or decides to discontinue the sanction/remedy and reassume management control before it has achieved substantial compliance. If the HHA or hospice program reassumes control before achieving substantial compliance, CMS would initiate termination of the provider agreement and could impose additional sanctions or remedies during the time period between HHA or hospice program resumption of management and termination. Temporary management will not exceed six months from the date of the survey identifying noncompliance.
