Published 06/03/2025


Home Health Review Choice Demonstration Extended Five More Years

Effective June 1, 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will extend the Review Choice Demonstration (RCD) for Home Health Services for an additional five years. Learn more.

Home health agencies (HHAs) are subject to the RCD. Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) are required to review an HHA’s documentation to determine if beneficiaries meet home health coverage requirements per the Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, chapter 7 (PDF).

Palmetto GBA provides HHAs with a wealth of information addressing the requirements and expectations of the RCD. Browse our collected articles about all aspects of the RCD.
