The Maryland Home Health Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering skilled home health care services to individuals of all ages in need of medical care and support in their homes in Maryland. This manual aligns with the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR), particularly COMAR 10.07.10 and 10.09.04, as well as the regulations established by the Maryland Department of Health (MDH). It also ensures compliance with Medicare and Medicaid Conditions of Participation (42 CFR Part 484) for agencies providing federally reimbursed services. The manual includes policies and procedures covering agency licensing and certification, patient eligibility and assessment, individualized care planning, skilled nursing and therapy services, home health aide supervision, infection control, medication management, patient rights and protections, emergency preparedness, and quality assurance. It also outlines the necessary standards for documentation, billing, and interdisciplinary care coordination to ensure comprehensive and patient-centered care. This manual serves as an essential resource for home health agencies in Maryland, supporting the delivery of high-quality, compliant care that promotes patient recovery, independence, and well-being within the comfort of their homes.
