National Alliance for Care at Home Submits Comments on Deregulation

The Situation Report | May 19, 2025

The National Alliance for Care at Home (Alliance) last week submmited its comments on the Trump Administration's Request for Information on identifying unduly burdensome, duplicative, or outdated regulations. 

In its letter to the Office of Management and Budget, the Alliance stated, "We appreciate the Administration’s efforts to reduce burdensome requirements and better streamline regulations to promote a more effective and efficient healthcare system. Indeed, we are aligned in this goal, and while we support fair and appropriate regulation, it should not interfere with providers’ efforts to support their communities and deliver care in the home.

The Alliance’s recommendations reflect extensive input solicited from its membership, as well as state associations, including HCANYS, representing providers delivering care in the home. Feedback from members underscores the necessity of eliminating or revising regulations as “unnecessary, unlawful, unduly burdensome, or unsound.”

The Alliance added: "Specifically, our members have highlighted rules that are inconsistent with the law, where regulatory costs and burdens significantly outweigh any benefits, and where provisions have become outdated or otherwise unnecessary in today’s healthcare landscape. Our comments also address regulations that inadvertently burden American businesses, specifically providers delivering care in the home, impeding their ability to effectively and efficiently deliver high-quality care. By reducing barriers, we can better foster an environment where providers can support their communities and deliver care in the place where Americans overwhelmingly prefer to receive it—the home."
