I'm looking for regulatory guidance for provider visits in the home. I am familiar with the RHC regulatory guidance for VNS, however, looking for specific detail on established guidelines for the provider doing home visits. Medical Necessity Requirements, etc. Appreciate any information shared! 1/11/2021 @ 11:41:00 AM

The home encounters would have to meet the same definition for an encounter found in the Policy Benefit Manual, Chapter 13. It must be a service requiring a face to face visit. CMS removed the requirement that the patient be homebound a while back.
