Home Health CAHPS is a survey that assesses what?

Home Health CAHPS is a patient-experience survey for people receiving home health care. It asks patients (and sometimes caregivers) about how well clinicians communicated, whether they got timely help, whether they understood their care and what they were told, and their overall satisfaction with the home health agency. This information captures the patient’s perspective and is used to guide quality improvement and inform CMS programs related to public reporting and pay-for-performance. It is not based on external data sources for quality metrics, nor is it a payment model by itself.
