During the audit review period, was the participant supposed to receive home care (e.g., was home care approved by the IDT, ordered or care planned for the participant)? Enter Yes if the participant was supposed to receive home care during the audit review period. Enter No if home care services were not determined necessary, approved or ordered. If No is entered, enter NA in columns H through P.

Enter the date home care was supposed to start for the participant (this date may fall outside the audit review period).

Enter NA, if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period.

Enter the participant's home care schedule and identify the services that were to be provided in those dates/times. Enter NA, if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period. Example: 5 days a week, 1 hour a day, medication administration.

Were home care services provided as approved, ordered, or care planned? (Yes/No) Enter NA, if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period.

Identify dates that home care was not provided as approved, ordered, or care planned, as well as the services not provided. Only include dates if services were not provided because of a PO error, staffing, or process issues such as: a lack of home care agencies/staff, scheduling errors, staff call-outs/no shows, miscommunication, etc. Do not include dates if the participant declined services, was hospitalized, was in a nursing facility, or was otherwise not available to receive the services. Enter NA, if home care services were provided as approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period or if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period.

For each date (date range) provided in column K, explain why home care was not provided as approved, ordered, or care planned during the audit review period. Enter NA, if home care services were provided as approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period or if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period.

Did a failure to provide home care services as approved, ordered, or care planned occur due to ineffective communication with or oversight of a contracted provider? (Yes/No)

Were there any negative outcomes that occurred because the participant did not receive home care as approved, ordered, or care planned? (Yes/No) Enter NA, if home care services were provided as approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period or if home care services were not approved, ordered, or care planned at any time during the audit review period.

If Yes, please describe the negative outcomes. Enter NA if there were no negative outcomes.
