The Kansas Home Health Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive framework for operating a state-compliant agency delivering skilled and non-skilled health services to individuals in Kansas. This manual aligns with the Kansas Administrative Regulations (K.A.R.), specifically sections such as K.A.R. § 28-51-104 and K.A.R. § 30-5-89, as well as the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) licensing standards and Medicaid and Medicare Conditions of Participation (42 CFR Part 484, if applicable) to ensure full regulatory compliance. It includes policies on licensing, clinical documentation, patient care standards, infection control, client rights, emergency preparedness, and quality assurance, supporting agencies in meeting state licensure, Medicaid certification, and accreditation requirements. The manual serves as a guide for maintaining high-quality care for Kansas’s regulatory framework for home health services agencies.
