Who Owns Home Health Agencies?
Ownership of home health agencies is filed with CMS as a chain of legal entities rather than a single company name. A group running dozens of home health agencies can appear in the raw files as dozens of unrelated businesses. WhoOwnsCare resolves those entities into corporate families using shared identifiers, officers, declared parents and portfolio overlap, and publishes the resolved family, its confidence classification and source provenance; the detailed supporting evidence is part of WhoOwnsCare’s reports and datasets.
5,234 of these home health agencies have no company anywhere in the ownership chain — every owner on file is a natural person. That is a structural feature of the sector rather than missing data, and it is why those facilities carry no named owner on this site.

How Home Health Agencies Are Resolved Differently from Nursing Homes
Fact: the CMS affiliation entity field exists only in the skilled nursing enrollment file, and no public change-of-ownership dataset exists for home health agencies. WhoOwnsCare therefore resolves home health agencies with a name-based resolver; CMS Associate-ID evidence is recorded but not used for merging (it doubled false merges in testing). Pre-tenure ownership history for home health agencies is not resolved, and only 61.5% of home health agencies (4550 of 7398) have a FY2024 or FY2025 HCRIS period that can be attributed to the current operator, because most CMS owner records for these provider types carry no association date.
