On April 2,
2013 CMS published Transmittal 2680 to remove the modifier to visits not
ordered by the certifying physician for episodes starting July 1, 2013.
The
requirement to report where home health agencies and hospices services are
provided remains the same. Beginning on
or after July 1, 2013, HHAs must report where home health services were
provided. The following codes are used
for this reporting are listed below:
Q5001:
Hospice or Home Health Care provided in patient’s home / residence
Q5002:
Hospice or Home Health Care Provided in Assisted Living Facility
Q5009:

If the
location where services were provided changes during the episode, the new
location should be reported with an additional line corresponding to the first
visit provided in the new location.
