Frequently asked questions
How many home health agencies are in Chesapeake, Virginia?
The current CMS Home Health Care dataset lists 6 agencies in Chesapeake, Virginia. Of these, 4 have a CMS quality-of-patient-care star rating.
What is the average CMS star rating for home health in Chesapeake?
The average CMS quality-of-patient-care star rating across rated agencies in Chesapeake is 2.75 of 5, compared with the Virginia average of 3.27. Averages exclude agencies CMS has not rated, and are calculated by this site rather than published by CMS.
Why do some Chesapeake agencies have no star rating?
CMS only publishes a star when an agency has enough Medicare episodes in the reporting window to compute one reliably. An agency that is small or newly certified may have no star and few or no measures. That is a gap in the public record, not a negative result, and it is never shown as a zero.
How do I verify a home health agency in Chesapeake?
