Idaho Medicaid Provider Handbook, Home Health and Hospice Services § 4.6.1
Plan of Care
A plan of care must be established and reviewed at least monthly and include all covered
services and supplies. Only services and items consistent with the plan of care are covered.
The initial plan of care must be written by a member of the basic interdisciplinary group who
assess the participant’s needs, after consulting with at least one other group member. One of
the caregivers developing the plan of care must be a nurse or physician. Hospice services are
not covered before the day the plan of care is established. The other two members of the
basic interdisciplinary group must review the initial plan of care and provide input within two
calendar days following the day of assessment.
