Utah Home Health Agency Complete Startup Package

Utah Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Licensing and Background Checks administers this agency licensing route. The principal requirements are R432-700. This package addresses the Home Health Agency model.

Utah licenses Home Health Agencies under R432-700. The agency application and written policies must reflect the clinical disciplines and services offered, with qualified professionals and appropriate clinical supervision.

For July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, the initial Utah Home Health Agency main-office fees total $3,951.61: $743.83 base fee, $2,138.52 agency fee, and $1,069.26 new-provider fee. Initial DACS setup is an additional $100; fingerprinting and other applicable charges are separate. Government fees are not included in our package.

The administrator must meet the rule's qualifications, including at least one year of managerial or supervisory experience. A qualified alternate is designated in writing. Agency administration and professional clinical supervision must both be addressed.

Qualified licensed health professionals supervise services within their respective scopes of practice. Maintain current credentials, documented experience, clinical responsibilities, and arrangements for coverage during absences.

Utah uses the health-facility application process with ownership and organizational information, business documentation, program description, staffing qualifications, and the R432-700 compliance checklist. Policies must be organized so the reviewer can locate each required item.

Use the Direct Access Clearance System for covered personnel and comply with the required screening and eligibility process before client access. Retain the appropriate clearance and professional license verification in the personnel records.

The plan should connect the professional assessment and required orders with the services, visit frequency, treatments, medications, safety needs, patient goals, and discharge arrangements. Document coordination across nursing, therapy, and aide services.

Yes. R432-700 calls for program evaluation and a written report to the governing body. Use clinical record review and service information to evaluate care, identify needed changes, and document follow-through.

Written agreements should establish the services, professional qualifications, responsibilities, supervision, scheduling, clinical documentation, and coordination with the primary agency. Contracted care remains part of the agency's quality review.

Yes. The 2026–2027 fee schedule lists an additional-branch charge of $371.92 and separate DACS charges. Individual fingerprinting and transaction costs can also apply; they are separate from document preparation.

Establish written emergency contacts, staff escalation, backup coverage, weather and travel procedures, and instructions for clients when a scheduled visit cannot occur. For an immediate medical emergency, staff should activate emergency services. Keep the response appropriate to the Utah services your agency is authorized to provide.

Provide a clear contact for concerns, record each complaint, assign follow-up, document the response, and review patterns that call for changes. Preserve client confidentiality and follow applicable abuse, neglect, and incident-reporting requirements.

Written policies are required for the licensed services. They should address administration, personnel, client care, supervision, rights, confidentiality, infection prevention, emergencies, and records. Maintain a documented process to review services, complaints, incidents, and record quality, and follow the quality or program-evaluation requirements applicable to this license. Utah also requires a written program evaluation report to the governing body.
