Answer to Question 1

The home care primary diagnosis is the diagnosis most related to the plan of care. If there is more than one diagnosis, the diagnosis that represents the most acute condition should be used.

Answer to Question 2

False. (There is no requirement for procedural coding on the part of the home health agency.)
