Home Health Agencies: Statistics and Data

Portal outage

Routine system maintenance is happening on Sunday, January 11th at 9 p.m. for up to 3 hours. The DHS DQA Provider Portal and associated systems will be unavailable during this time. We appreciate your understanding and support.

The Division of Quality Assurance (DQA) regularly investigates home health agencies (HHAs). These are called surveys. Surveys ensure HHAs follow all state and federal rules.

Surveys are performed:

  • When complaints are filed against an HHA.
  • When self-reported complaints are filed.
  • When an HHA needs to renew a license or certification.

When surveys show that an HHA isn't following all rules, they are issued a citation. Citations are written on a document called statements of deficiency. Citations explain what rule was broken.

Reports

The reports below summarize the results of the surveys conducted by DQA.
