The cost of home care is dependent on the type of insurance you have. With certain commercial insurances, they require payment of a deductible or coinsurance. If you are uncertain, contact us and we can help verify coverage with your insurer.

Those patients covered by MEDICARE there is no cost. Medicare does not have a deductible or coinsurance charged to the beneficiary for the home health benefit. Our billing goes directly to Medicare and their payment is in full for our services. We are precluded by law from billing any additional to the beneficiary, unless the service is not one covered by Medicare.
 
 
To be eligible for coverage under Medicare a patient must meet the following criteria:
 

The patient must be essentially homebound-meaning trips away from home must be infrequent or of short duration. Because it has been proven that your spiritual well being is important in your overall health status, Medicare recently approved leaving home for religious services. It was also approved to leave home for medical treatment (office visits, etc.)
 
Care must be intermittent (part time), medically necessary, and ordered/approved by your physician;
 
The Patient's condition must require a skilled need.
