The Ohio Therapy Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering skilled therapy services under Ohio’s Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver programs. This manual is designed to ensure alignment with the Ohio Administrative Code, Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) regulations, and relevant sections of the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requirements. It addresses both clinical and administrative standards necessary for operating a compliant, high-quality therapy service agency.
The manual includes robust policies covering therapy-specific service delivery—including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and audiology—along with essential operational domains such as clinical documentation, client intake and assessment, individualized treatment planning, interdisciplinary coordination, infection control, client rights, safety management, and emergency preparedness. It also contains structured protocols for quality assurance, staff qualifications, ongoing training, Medicaid billing, and compliance monitoring.
This manual supports provider agencies in meeting Ohio’s licensure and waiver participation requirements, maintaining Medicaid compliance, and delivering consistent, person-centered therapy services to individuals with disabilities in community-based settings. It serves as a critical guide for administrators, clinicians, support staff, and quality assurance teams, helping ensure regulatory adherence while upholding the highest standards of care across all therapy disciplines
