Face to Face Visits

Home Health Referrals

在家庭健康服务开始之前，医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心要求面对面的访问和文件。此文件必须包括相遇日期(90天内)、合格诊断和合格归国状态。该命令必须由pecos注册医生签署，而不是高级执业提供者(APN/PA)或居民。

Home Medical Equipment Referrals

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) require face-to-face encounters for durable medical equipment. The encounter must occur within the 6 months before the order is written for the DME.

This requirement will include a face-to-face note for the following items that OSF Home Medical Equipment provides:

Make a Referral to OSF Home Care

We are required by law to collect the following information from the referral source in order to complete the referral:

• History and physical
• Medication list
• Physician orders
• Demographics/facesheet
• Face-to-face (if Medicare/Medicaid)

*Note: All referrals to our hospice program are immediately elevated to our local hospice manager in order to get your patient into hospice care as soon as possible.

Self-Referrals

Anyone can make a referral to OSF Home Care. You can even call to set up your own home care service. Our team can set up an evaluation visit to determine if you or your loved one needs home care services.

However, a physician’s order is needed to start services. If the OSF Home Care team determines a need for these services, we will contact your physician to obtain the necessary order.
