The purpose of the regulation is to create a consistent standard within Medicare and Medicaid while giving patients assurance of the vaccination status of those delivering care. This requirement will apply to approximately 76,000 providers and cover over 17 million health care workers across the country.<\/p>\n<p>Amity Healthcare Group was able to join the CMS\u00a0 National Stakeholder Call on November 4<sup>th<\/sup> and would like to provide you with a brief summary\/key points of the call (please see below):<\/p>\n<p>As per CMS, the three basic requirements of the Omnibus COVID-19 Health Care Staff Vaccination rule that facilities must complete are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have a process\u00a0 or plan for vaccinating eligible staff<\/li>\n<li>Have a process or plan for providing exemptions and accommodations for those who are exempt<\/li>\n<li>Have a process\u00a0 or plan for tracking and documenting staff vaccinations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The above processes or plans must be in place\u00a0 within 30-days from today (by <strong>December 5, 2021<\/strong>)<\/p>\n<p>In addition, all eligible\u00a0 staff are required to receive 1<sup>st<\/sup> dose of vaccination by <strong>December 5<sup>th<\/sup>, 2021<\/strong> and be fully vaccinated by <strong>January 4, 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CMS indicated that <strong>vaccination is the only option<\/strong>, and as the result, the rule does not include a testing option for unvaccinated staff (providers are, however, encouraged to voluntarily institute testing alongside other infection prevention measures).<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>CMS also made it very clear that this regulation pre-empts any state law. <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When asked how will CMS check compliance with the above requirements, it was indicated that CMS will work directly with the State\u00a0 Survey Agencies and Accrediting Organizations to regularly review compliance with Medicare\/Medicaid regulations and expects the survey agencies to conduct compliance review\u00a0 for the above requirements during recertification\/renewal surveys and complaint surveys.\u00a0 Surveyors will be instructed to check on the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Having a process in place for vaccinating eligible staff<\/li>\n<li>Having a process in place for providing exemptions and accommodations for those who are exempt<\/li>\n<li>Having a process in place\u00a0 for tracking and documenting staff vaccinations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Surveyors will also be instructed to cite facilities based on the level of severity of the noncompliance.<\/p>\n<p>The conditions of participation for home health agencies at \u00a7 484.70, Infection Prevention &amp; Control, would be modified to include the additions below.<\/p>\n<p>(d) Standard: COVID-19 Vaccination of Home Health Agency staff. The home health agency (HHA) must develop and implement policies and procedures to ensure that all staff are fully vaccinated for COVID-19. For purposes of this section, staff is considered fully vaccinated if it has been 2 weeks or more since they completed a primary vaccination series for COVID-19. The completion of a primary vaccination series for COVID-19 is defined here as the administration of a single-dose vaccine, or the administration of all required doses of a multidose vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>(1) Regardless of clinical responsibility or patient contact, the policies and procedures must apply to the following HHA staff, who provide any care, treatment, or other services for the HHA and\/or its patients:<\/p>\n<p>(i) HHA employees;<\/p>\n<p>(ii) Licensed practitioners;<\/p>\n<p>(iii) Students, trainees, and volunteers; and (iv) Individuals who provide care, treatment, or other services for the HHA and\/or its patients, under contract or by other arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>(2) The policies and procedures of this section do not apply to the following HHA staff:<\/p>\n<p>(i) Staff who exclusively provide telehealth or telemedicine services outside of the settings where home health services are directly provided to patients and who do not have any direct contact with patients, families, and caregivers, and other staff specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section; and<\/p>\n<p>(ii) Staff who provide support services for the HHA that are performed exclusively outside of the settings where home health services are directly provided to patients and who do not have any direct contact with patients, families, and caregivers, and other staff specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section.<\/p>\n<p>(3) The policies and procedures must include, at a minimum, the following components:<\/p>\n<p>(i) A process for ensuring all staff specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section (except for those staff who have pending requests for, or who have been granted, exemptions to the vaccination requirements of this section, or those staff for whom COVID-19 vaccination must be temporarily delayed, as recommended by the CDC, due to clinical precautions and considerations) have received, at a minimum, a single-dose COVID-19 vaccine, or the first dose of the primary vaccination series for a multi-dose COVID-19 vaccine prior to staff providing any care, treatment, or other services for the HHA and\/or its patients;<\/p>\n<p>(ii) A process for ensuring that all staff specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section are fully vaccinated for COVID-19, except for those staff who have been granted exemptions to the vaccination requirements of this section, or those staff for whom COVID-19 vaccination must be temporarily delayed, as recommended by the CDC, due to clinical precautions and considerations;<\/p>\n<p>(iii) A process for ensuring the implementation of additional precautions, intended to mitigate the transmission and spread of COVID-19, for all staff who are not fully vaccinated for COVID-19;<\/p>\n<p>(iv) A process for tracking and securely documenting the COVID-19 vaccination status of all staff specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section;<\/p>\n<p>(v) A process for tracking and securely documenting the COVID-19 vaccination status of any staff who have obtained any booster doses as recommended by the CDC;<\/p>\n<p>(vi) A process by which staff may request an exemption from the staff COVID-19 vaccination requirements based on an applicable Federal law; (<\/p>\n<p>vii) A process for tracking and securely documenting information provided by those staff who have requested, and for whom the HHA has granted, an exemption from the staff COVID-19 vaccination requirements;<\/p>\n<p>(viii) A process for ensuring that all documentation, which confirms recognized clinical contraindications to COVID-19 vaccines and which supports staff requests for medical exemptions from vaccination, has been signed and dated by a licensed practitioner, who is not the individual requesting the exemption, and who is acting within their respective scope of practice as defined by, and in accordance with, all applicable State and local laws, and for further ensuring that such documentation contains<\/p>\n<p>(A) All information specifying which of the authorized COVID-19 vaccines are clinically contraindicated for the staff member to receive and the recognized clinical reasons for the contraindications; and<\/p>\n<p>(B) A statement by the authenticating practitioner recommending that the staff member be exempted from the HHA\u2019s COVID-19 vaccination requirements for staff based on the recognized clinical contraindications;<\/p>\n<p>(ix) A process for ensuring the tracking and secure documentation of the vaccination status of staff for whom COVID-19 vaccination must be temporarily delayed, as recommended by the CDC, due to clinical precautions and considerations, including, but not limited to, individuals with acute illness secondary to COVID-19, and individuals who received monoclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma for COVID-19 treatment;
