HHSC will conduct an on-site revisit to follow up with the agency concerning its plan of correction.

The purpose of the revisit is to confirm that the agency has regained compliance with licensing and/or certification requirements and has the ability to remain in compliance. The agency should remember this in selecting its PoC completion date.

The agency can typically show evidence of monitoring by summarizing what measures it has taken to ensure sustained compliance.

Under specific conditions (e.g., lack of a policy unrelated to patient care), state violations cited in the PoC may be such that a mail or telephone follow-up visit will suffice for licensed-only citations.

However, the HCSSA regional program manager has the option to convert it to an on-site visit if insufficient information is received by the agency to answer all questions about the PoC.

See S&CC 06-02 for additional information.
