Frequently Asked Questions
Is Home Health Care Too Expensive?
Home Health Care is covered by Medicare. Medicaid and most private insurance companies, if you meet the eligibility requirements.
Is Home Health Care Low-Quality Compared to the Care Provided in Hospitals and Facilities?
Home health companies employ licensed, skilled professionals. These individuals can provide similar types of care as a hospital but in a setting that is less rushed and more comfortable. Be sure to do your research and look at reviews on what company you are using!
Does Getting Home Health Care Mean I am Losing My Independence?
The opposite is true. The purpose of home health care is to preserve your independence and keep you safe at home as long as possible. Your home health team will give you tips and tools and check in to see how you’re doing.
If I Already Get Personal Care/Home Care, Do I Still Need Home Health Care?
Home health services are different from home care. They include skilled care from professionals such as registered nurses and speech, occupational and physical therapists. Even if you get home care services like help with housekeeping, cooking or personal care, you can also receive home health care if you qualify.
If I Already Have a Family Member Caring For Me, Does that Mean I Don't Need Home Health?
Family caregivers play an essential role in keeping you safe at home. Home health providers cannot replace family caregivers, but they can offer an additional layer of support and education for your caregiver, who may be feeling a lot of stress.
Is Home Health Care Only For People Who Were Recently Discharged From the Hospital or a Rehab Facility?
If you qualify for home health care, you can be referred directly by your doctor, without being in a hospital or rehab facility. This is often the case for eligible individuals managing multiple chronic health conditions, as well as for those who were recently diagnosed with a serious illness or who are struggling to manage daily tasks.
Do I Need to be Bedbound to Get Home Health Care?
You do not have to be bedbound (unable to get out of bed) to receive home health care. You do have to be homebound for home health services. Homebound means, generally, that you normally are unable to leave your home without assistance, and that, if you are able to leave for brief intervals, it requires a considerable and taxing effort.
Do I Need to Have Nursing Care to Get Home Health Care?
Home health does care for people with nursing needs. However, patients can get home health care even if they only need therapy, such as speech therapy or physical therapy.
