The California Department of Health issued an All Facilities Letter reminding hospice providers of their requirement to file a verified report with the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) on or before March 15 of each calendar year. The report must include information such as patient ages, diagnostic categories, and number of visits by service provided. Reports must be submitted through the Automated Licensing Information and Report Tracking System (ALIRTS). Failure to file the required report may result in the revoking of a provider's license or denial of a license renewal application. Hospice providers should visit the OSHPD forms and instructions page for more information on data and form submission. For questions regarding the submission of annual utilization reports through ALIRTS, providers can contact the OSHPD's ALIRTS Support Line.
