The 2011 Home Health Prospective Payment System rule provided clarifications and new requirements for coverage of rehabilitation therapy services. Documentation standards reinforcing functional goals, objective measures and professional standards are clarified in this rule. New reassessment timelines are outlined, as well as requirements for what the reassessments must entail and include in the documentation of the assessment. This webinar reviews the new standards and applies them to examples informed by the professional standards of these rehabilitation disciplines.
