Frequently Asked Questions
Are these policies compliant with New York NYSDOH regulations?
Yes—every package is built to meet New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) standards including Public Health Law Article 36 (LHCSA), Article 40 (Hospice), and 10 NYCRR Parts 763 (CHHA), 766 (LHCSA), and 793-794 (Hospice).
What's the difference between LHCSA and CHHA licenses in New York?
LHCSA (Licensed Home Care Services Agency) provides nursing, home health aide, and personal care services under 10 NYCRR Part 766. CHHA (Certified Home Health Agency) provides skilled nursing, therapy, medical social services, and requires additional Medicare/Medicaid certification under 10 NYCRR Part 763. Both require Certificate of Need approval.
Do I need a Certificate of Need (CON) in New York?
Yes. New York requires all LHCSA, CHHA, and Hospice agencies to obtain Certificate of Need approval from NYSDOH before applying for licensure/certification. This demonstrates public need, qualified management, and financial viability. The CON process typically takes 3-6 months.
What are the administrator qualification requirements?
New York requires administrators to be Registered Nurses (RN) with at least 2 years of supervisory experience in home care or related healthcare field. Clinical directors must meet similar qualifications under 10 NYCRR regulations.
Can I customize these policies for my agency?
Absolutely. After purchase, you'll provide your agency details and we personalize each document to your specific New York location, services, and NYSDOH requirements.
What format are the documents provided in?
All policies are delivered as editable Word and PDF files for easy implementation and submission to NYSDOH licensing authorities.
Do you offer implementation support?
Yes—we provide guidance via email and phone to help integrate the policies seamlessly and meet New York NYSDOH licensing requirements.
Do these policies cover CDPAP and MLTC programs?
Yes. Our policies include compliance standards for Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) and Managed Long-Term Care (MLTC) programs specific to New York State requirements.
Which package is right for my New York agency?
Choose LHCSA for personal care and home health aide services, CHHA for skilled nursing and therapy services with Medicare/Medicaid certification, Hospice for end-of-life care (with valid CON), or the Total Healthcare Package for comprehensive multi-service coverage.
