Notes
Split oversight: HFC (home health/hospice) vs TDMHSAS/DDA (PSSA). Terminology and the exact PSSA licensing split could not be confirmed because all tn.gov hosts returned 403 or connection errors from our network.

Terminology varies by state. HomeCareIntent uses each state's own term on its pages and maps it to a common category. Glossary
