What this is
End-to-end support to license a California Home Health Agency (HHA), regulated by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Center for Health Care Quality (Health & Safety Code §§1725–1742.7; 22 CCR Division 5, Chapter 6). Widely regarded as the most demanding HHA regime in the country — which is exactly why doing it right matters.
What’s included
- Clinical governance CDPH mandates — a qualified Director of Patient Care Services (H&S Code §1736.1), professional advisory group and clinical policy framework.
- Licence application via the Centralized Applications Branch, prepared for California’s combined state-licensure and Medicare survey.
- Privacy — CCPA/CPRA obligations layered on HIPAA for California patient data.
- Policies & procedures built to California standards and the federal Conditions of Participation, with realistic timeline planning for CDPH’s known backlog.
How it works
- Kick-off call to confirm clinical leadership and structure.
- We prepare your application, governance and policies.
- You review; we refine until it is right.
- We guide submission and stay with you through survey and approval.
Indicative timeline: long — commonly 6–12 months, and CDPH review can run considerably longer depending on backlog and readiness. New Medicare enrolment is paused nationwide until at least November 2026 — we use the window to get you fully ready to enrol the moment it reopens. Fees and timelines change, so we confirm current figures with CDPH and CMS as part of your project.
