folder_openInformation for Home Health Agenciescalendar_todayPosted April 2, 2013

The purpose of this announcement is to alert Medicare-certified home health agencies (HHAs) that results from the Home Health Care CAHPS (HHCAHPS) Survey will be "refreshed" on Home Health Compare on www.medicare.gov on April 18, 2013 or sometime thereafter. HHCAHPS Survey results are based on 12-months of survey data and are updated each calendar year quarter. Each quarter, the data from the oldest quarter are replaced by data from the most recent quarter for which data are available. The word "refreshed" simply means that the results that were posted on Home Health Compare the last quarter are updated to reflect results that are based on HHCAHPS Survey data from the four most recent quarters.

Preview Reports for the results that will be published on Home Health Compare in April 2013 are now available on the HHCAHPS Web site. To access your agency's Preview Report, log into the HHCAHPS Web site using your username and password. Select the "Preview Reports" link under the "For HHAs" tab. The system will then display your HHCAHPS survey results. If you have forgotten your username or password, click the Login link, type in your user name, click "Forgot Password," and then follow the directions to have your username and password sent to you via an HHCAHPS e-mail message.

For more information about the Preview Reports, please refer to the announcement posted on the HHCAHPS Web site on Friday, March 23, 2012, which is available at the following link.
