Now Activated: 2018 CHHA/LTHHCP Statistical Report and 2018 Hospice Cost and Utilization Report

The Department of Health (DOH) recently issued a Dear Administrator Letter (DAL) activating the 2018 Certified Home Health Agency (CHHA)/Long Term Home Health Care Program (LTHHCP) Statistical Report and the 2018 Hospice Cost and Utilization Report. Both reports can be found on the Health Commerce System (HCS) under the Health Electronic Response Data System (HERDS) application. The 2018 reports will be open for completion through Feb. 24, 2020 and then will no longer be available. Please note that providers will be subject to civil penalties for late or incomplete submissions. This will also affect a provider’s character and competence should the Department pursue an action for failure to submit.

The Department encourages providers to start the reports now and complete them well ahead of the final week, as it may be difficult to resolve errors or concerns due to delays. Please review the DAL and the attached instructions. Providers can send questions and requests for assistance to HCStatRpts@health.ny.gov.
