We understand the critical role that your home health agency plays in providing essential healthcare services to the residents of Oklahoma. That's why SimiTree wants to ensure you are well-informed about an upcoming change that will impact your operations.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will be implementing the Review Choice Demonstration for Home Health Services in Oklahoma, effective December 1, 2023. This initiative is part of CMS's ongoing efforts to safeguard the integrity of Medicare home health requirements and protect Medicare trust funds. The demonstration is being introduced in response to claims analysis that revealed increased utilization of home health services in Oklahoma, as well as higher allowed expenditures and utilization of home health services in comparison to the remaining states within the Home Health & Hospice Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) Jurisdiction M.
To help you prepare for these changes, here are the key dates associated with the Review Choice Demonstration in Oklahoma:
- Selection Period Start Date: October 16, 2023
- Selection Period End Date: November 15, 2023
- Selection Effective Date: December 1, 2023
During the selection period, you will have the opportunity to make choices that align with your agency's goals and objectives. We encourage you to take this time to review your options carefully and ensure that your agency is in compliance with Medicare home health requirements.
