  • Title: The legal considerations surrounding OASIS (Outcome Assessment and Information Set) reporting requirements.
    Author: Mikos CW, Koch LA.
    Journal: Caring; 1999 Mar; 18(3):20-3. PubMed ID: 10387561.
    Abstract:
    Effective February 24, 1999, all home health agencies that participate in the Medicare program implemented comprehensive assessments that contain a core data set known as OASIS for all adult, nonmaternity patients. The completion of the comprehensive assessment, using OASIS, also requires agencies to report OASIS data to designated regulatory bodies at least every 30 days. Both requirements are new Conditions of Participation for the Medicare program.
