State and National Resources for Clinicians

From time to time, we receive inquires from our users with clinical questions. Though our team possesses a treasure trove of knowledge in different aspects of home health, including Medicare home health care, early intervention (EI), pediatric therapy, outpatient therapy and more, we are not clinicians. However, we do want to give our users the resources to help find answers. With that in mind, we put together a list of pertinent websites by state as well as websites for national organizations and CMS-specific sites.

Note, if you are a clinician working for a provider, always check with your clinical supervisors about the company’s policies and procedures. When organizational policies and procedures are more stringent than federal or state regulations, clinicians are required to follow those policies and procedures in the provision of care.
