If standards and/or conditions are not met for a federal survey, or if rules are not met for a state survey, then the home health agency must submit a plan of correction to the Division
A follow-up survey may be made to verify that compliance has been achieved
Surveys look at the care provided to a sample of the clients
Surveys only reflect a snapshot in time
