- Summary
- Effective immediately, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will begin to assign identification numbers to every existing branch of a parent home health agency (HHA) and subunit. The identification system will be implemented nationally and will uniquely identify every branch of every HHA certified to participate in the Medicare home health program. It will also link the parent or subunit to the branch.
