How long does initial licensing take in New Hampshire?
Schedules vary based on survey readiness and category. Initial surveys move faster when your application is complete, the environment is set up, and staff files are well-organized. Our consultation helps you prepare by reviewing your application, checking the floor plan and equipment readiness, and conducting a mock survey to address any gaps before DHHS arrives.
Are non-medical home care agencies licensed?
Yes. He-P 822 licenses Home Care Service Provider Agencies to deliver personal care and homemaker support services. Our HCSPA package covers all required areas, including client service plans, supervisor qualifications, medication self-administration, and incident reporting.
What background checks are required for direct care staff?
Expect registry and criminal background checks and health exams when applicable. To help document compliance, we provide file audit sheets, attestation forms, and onboarding checklists.
How do Medicaid enrollments work for new providers?
After obtaining your license or meeting eligibility requirements, enroll with New Hampshire Medicaid and the MCOs. To support a smooth billing process, we provide payer enrollment checklists, PECOS and NPI guidance, taxonomy recommendations, and plan-specific prior authorization matrices.
What are common survey findings, and how do we avoid them?
Common gaps include weak QAPI evidence, inconsistent care plans, missing personnel credentials, and incomplete policies. To ensure compliance and prevent repeat citations, our kits provide an He-P crosswalk, competency tools, QAPI templates, and self-audit logs.
