Welcome back to the Home Health Suit and Scrubs Podcast! While compliance might not be everyone's favorite topic (as our episode title playfully suggests), it's a critical aspect of home health practice that directly impacts patient care, agency sustainability, and professional liability. Today, we're tackling this essential subject with someone who brings a unique and invaluable perspective to the conversation.

Our guest, Tricia Mathis, PT, MS, MBA-HM, serves as Director of Quality Assurance and Therapy Services at OneHome, a division of Humana. With 23 years of physical therapy experience, including 19 years in home health practice, Tricia has been on both sides of the compliance equation. She understands the daily pressures clinicians face in the field while also recognizing the critical importance of quality documentation and regulatory adherence from an organizational perspective. This dual insight makes her the perfect guide to help us navigate the often murky waters of home health compliance.

In this episode, we'll dive deep into the most common compliance pitfalls she encounters, practical strategies for effective documentation that doesn't consume your entire evening, proper protocols for handling incidents and safety concerns, and her thoughtful perspective on the ongoing challenges of utilization management. Whether you're a seasoned home health therapist looking to refine your documentation practices or a newer clinician trying to master the basics of compliance, Tricia's insights will help you provide better patient care while protecting both yourself and your agency.

The Home Health Suit + Scrubs Podcast is your weekly dose of real talk for home health clinicians. Hosted by Dan Haggerty—a national home health therapy executive—and three seasoned home health PTs, each episode dives into the topics that matter most: safety, efficiency, clinical care, and career growth. Whether you’re a new grad or a home health veteran, you’ll find practical tips, relatable stories, and candid conversations designed to help you thrive in the field. From navigating tricky documentation to setting boundaries and staying safe on the road, Suit + Scrubs blends real-world insight with a touch of humor to make your commute between visits more useful—and more fun.
