Which term is a survey focusing on patient experiences in home health?

• A. Home Health CAHPS
• B. Quality Episodes
• C. PDGM
• D. Resumption of Care Assessment

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is patient experience measurement. Home Health CAHPS is the survey specifically designed to capture patients’ and caregivers’ experiences with home health services. It asks about how well the home health team communicated, whether patients received useful information and instructions, and the overall satisfaction with the agency, including whether they would recommend it. CAHPS surveys are standardized tools used across settings to gauge patient-centered quality from the consumer perspective, and the home health version is tailored to the home health care context.

The other terms describe different concepts. One is a payment model used for reimbursement rather than measuring experiences. Another is an OASIS-related assessment used to document resumption of care after a gap. The remaining option isn’t a standard patient-experience survey. So the term that specifically refers to a survey focusing on patient experiences in home health is Home Health CAHPS.
