Oklahoma Medicare Home Health Agency Complete Startup Package

The Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH), Home Services Division, licenses and surveys Home Care Agencies. The principal requirements are the Home Care Act, 63 O.S. § 1-1960 et seq., and OAC Title 310, Chapter 662.

Oklahoma's Home Care Agency license covers the services selected in the application, including personal care or skilled care. The service scope determines the staffing, supervision, and care requirements.

The skilled agency may offer nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, respiratory therapy, medical social services, and home health aide or personal care services, as appropriate to its application and staffing.

Oklahoma's state licensing rules govern the services actually offered. The agency must maintain qualified staff, necessary supervision, and care plans for each service; the state-licensed package is the path that cannot bill Medicare.

A Medicare Home Health Agency provides skilled nursing and other qualifying home health services. It must meet applicable state or local requirements and the federal Home Health Conditions of Participation, as well as complete Medicare enrollment and certification.

No. State approval and Medicare participation are separate. A state license, business registration, or submitted application alone does not authorize Medicare billing. The agency must complete the applicable federal enrollment and certification process.

Obtain the agency’s National Provider Identifier (NPI), prepare the institutional enrollment application through PECOS or the applicable CMS-855A process, and work with the Medicare Administrative Contractor and the appropriate survey or accreditation organization. Follow their current instructions and application-fee requirements.

Medicare participation requires demonstrating compliance with the applicable federal standards. This generally involves a State Survey Agency survey or accreditation through a CMS-approved accrediting organization with the appropriate home health program. State requirements may also apply. Accreditation alone is not a substitute for completing enrollment.

Prepare qualified leadership and clinical staff, written policies, clinical and personnel records, care-planning procedures, emergency preparedness, infection prevention, quality improvement, and applicable OASIS processes. Confirm operational readiness and patient-service requirements with the organization conducting the initial survey.
