What this is
End-to-end support to establish a Georgia Home Health Agency, regulated by DCH/HFRD for licensure (Rule 111-8-31) with the DCH Office of Health Planning for the Certificate of Need (CON) (Rule 111-2-2). In Georgia, a licence alone is not enough — you must win a CON first, and that is the defining barrier.
What’s included
- Certificate of Need (CON) strategy — the two-step gate: a Letter of Intent filed 30 days ahead, then a competitive, need-based application with service-area justification, need data, staffing, financials and quality plans.
- Pathway mapping so you spend time and money in the right order — CON is competitive, can be opposed by incumbents, and can be denied.
- HHA licence application prepared to follow a favourable CON award (12 months to implement).
- Policies & procedures built to Georgia standards and the federal Conditions of Participation, with Medicare-certification readiness.
How it works
- Kick-off call to assess CON feasibility for your service area.
- We prepare your CON case, then your licence and policies.
- You review; we refine until it is right.
- We guide submission and stay with you through award, licensure and certification.
Indicative timeline: materially longer than non-CON states — frequently a year or more once CON review, build-out and licensure stack. Georgia is also a heightened-scrutiny state and new Medicare enrolment is paused nationwide until at least November 2026. Fees and timelines change, so we confirm current figures with DCH and CMS as part of your project.
Ideal for
Providers pursuing skilled home health in Georgia who need an honest read on CON feasibility before committing.
