New York State Statewide Certified Home Health Care Agency (CHHA) and Long-Term Home Health Care Program (LTHHCP) Annual Statistical Report: Patients, Cases and Discharges

The dataset includes CHHA and LTHHCP information at the reporting agency level of the total number of patients, cases, and discharges for the reporting year.

CHHAs/LTHHCPs provide part time, intermittent, skilled services which are of a preventative, therapeutic, rehabilitative, health guidance and/or supportive nature to persons at home. Home health services include nursing services; home health aide services; medical supplies, equipment, and appliances suitable for use in the home; and at least one additional service that may include physical therapy; occupational therapy; speech pathology; nutritional services; and medical social services.

The purpose of collecting data from service providers is to obtain their demographic information as well as past operational statistics like volume, patient census, types of services provided, or workload information. This data is self-reported annually.
