AHCC, DecisionHealth, and BMSC are divisions of HCPro LLC. The Association of Home Care Coding & Compliance (AHCC) is the premier coding and compliance community for home care, providing opportunities for education, professional growth, advocacy, and networking.

AHCC’s credentialing arm, the Board of Medical Specialty Coding & Compliance (BMSC), offers professional credentials, including the Home Care Coding Specialist – Diagnosis (HCS-D), the Home Care Coding Specialist – Hospice (HCS-H), and the Home Care Clinical Specialist – OASIS (HCS-O).

BMSC has been credentialing home health coders since 2003. More than 68% of agencies require coders to have earned the HCS-D credential as a condition of employment. The HCS-O is a preferred credential for field clinicians and OASIS reviewers.

The credentials are overseen by an independent committee of home health, hospice, and OASIS experts nationally recognized as leading authorities.
