Impactful Policy Frameworks
CMS Medicare Advantage Supplemental Benefits Expansion (2019)
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) expanded the types of supplemental benefits that Medicare Advantage plans can offer, including non-medical in-home support services.
This policy allows more seniors to access and fund in-home care services through their Medicare Advantage plans, potentially expanding Advocate In-Home Care's client base and revenue streams.
Public Health Emergency (PHE) Flexibilities (Ongoing, various dates)
During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, federal and state governments introduced numerous waivers and flexibilities for healthcare providers, including those in home care, particularly concerning telehealth and licensing requirements.
While some flexibilities are temporary, their potential long-term adoption could streamline operations and expand service delivery methods for Advocate In-Home Care, especially concerning remote consultations and caregiver qualifications.
Florida Nurse Registry Regulations (e.g., Chapter 400, F.S.) (Ongoing updates)
Florida's specific statutes and administrative codes for Nurse Registries (e.g., Chapter 400, F.S., and associated F.A.C. rules) govern licensing, background checks, referral practices, and caregiver qualifications.
Ongoing updates and strict enforcement of these Florida-specific regulations directly influence Advocate In-Home Care's operational compliance, caregiver screening processes, and overall business model as a Nurse Registry.
