Abstract:
This request is for OMB PRA approval of a version update of the Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS). The updated version of the OASIS item set is titled OASIS –E1. OASIS is a core standard assessment data set that Home Health Agencies (HHAs) integrate into their own patient-specific, comprehensive assessment to identify each patient’s need for home care that meets the patient’s medical, nursing, rehabilitative, social, and discharge planning needs. Since 1999, the Medicare Conditions of Participation (CoPs) have mandated that HHAs use the OASIS data set when evaluating adult, non-maternity patients receiving skilled services. OASIS data are used for both home health quality measurement and payment adjustment. OASIS-E1 is scheduled for implementation on January 1, 2025, to comply with changes noted in the CY2024 HH Final Rule. The changes for OASIS-E1 include addition of one new item: O0350. COVID-19 Vaccine, and removal of two items: M0110. Episode Timing andM2200 Therapy Need due to no longer being used in the HH QRP or for other purposes in CMS programs. Also, Discharge Goals, Column 2 in GG0130 Self-Care and Column 2 in GG0170 Mobility are removed, with their associated instructions due to retiring the quality measure: Application of Percent of Long-Term Care Hospital Patients with an Admission & Discharge Functional Assessment and a Care Plan that Addresses Function Discharge. Instructions for Part C of item D0150. Patient Mood Interview PHQ-2 to 9 are revised to clarify directions for completing the interview.
