Agency snapshot
What CMS patient-care data says about this agency
The OT Index profile keeps CMS patient-care quality data visible and separate from employer-fit questions that CMS does not measure, such as OT staffing, mileage policy, visit pay, caseload design, and documentation burden.
Our take
Lamoille Home Health & Hospice home health assessment
Why it stands out
- Its discharge function score is 75.23, 2.10 points above the dataset midpoint. That is especially relevant to OTs because it reflects functional status at discharge.
Tradeoffs that matter
- 80.7% for walking improvement is 8.8 percentage points below the dataset midpoint. For an OT, that raises a concrete concern about mobility outcomes, not just a statistical footnote.
- Its 4.12 potentially preventable readmission rate is worse than the 4.07 dataset midpoint because lower is better.
What to compare next
- Compare Lamoille Home Health & Hospice's weakest CMS measure with nearby agencies first; that is more revealing than comparing star ratings alone.
- Convert any per-visit offer into an effective hourly rate after drive time, cancellations, meetings, and documentation before comparing it with salaried work.
- Put territory size, daily visit expectations, weekend rotation, and documentation support beside the same terms from another branch; those operating details determine whether the clinical quality is sustainable for staff.

Its 2.5-star rating and 98.8% result for medication issues receiving timely follow-up are genuine positives.
