65-5106. Same; written report; list of deficiencies; exit interview; copies of report.
After completion of each survey inspection, a written report of the findings with respect to compliance or noncompliance with the provisions of this act and the standards established hereunder as well as a list of deficiencies found shall be prepared. The list of deficiencies shall specifically state the statute or rule and regulation which the home health agency is alleged to have violated. A copy of the survey inspection report shall be furnished to the applicant, except that a copy of the preliminary survey inspection report signed jointly by a representative of the home health agency and the inspector shall be left with the applicant when an inspection is completed. This preliminary survey inspection report shall constitute the final record of deficiencies assessed against the home health agency during the inspection, all deficiencies shall be specifically listed and no additional deficiencies based upon the data developed at that time shall be assessed at a later time. An exit interview shall be conducted in conjunction with the joint signing of the preliminary survey inspection report. Upon request, every home health agency shall provide to any person a copy of the most recent survey inspection report and related documents, provided the person requesting such report agrees to pay a reasonable charge to cover copying costs.
