Home Health Agencies: Statistics and Data
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.
