The calendar year (CY) 2019 Annual Payment Update (APU) data collection requirement for HHCAHPS Survey participation begins with the April 2017 sample month.  HHAs that are not yet participating in HHCAHPS should register as soon as possible on this website at the following link:

HHAs should contract with an HHCAHPS vendor listed on this website beginning with the April 2017 sample month.  Once HHAs have contracted with a vendor, they must complete the online authorization for that vendor on the HHCAHPS website.  For more information on how to authorize vendors as well as other HHA participation start-up activities, please refer to this document:

Please note that this document will be updated in mid-March to reference the CY2019 APU participation period.
