Security Changes for Home Health OASIS Users

In February 2010, CMS will change the way Home Health Agencies (HHA) users’ login to submit assessment files and access agency reporting. The changes will be rolled out to transition login IDs away from shared agency login IDs, used by multiple people, to individual user IDs.

Beginning in February 2010 and wrapping up in August 2010, small groups of states will transition to individual user IDs about every two weeks.

Information regarding the roll out schedule, as well as, detailed instructions will be available in the upcoming months.

As the information is available it will be posted on your state’s OASIS State Welcome Page and the QIES Technical Support Office at http://www.qtso.com on the Internet.
