Medicare and Medicaid:

Currently, services rendered to patients under Medicare and Medicaid is fully covered at no cost to the patient. This would not apply to persons who have elected enrollment into a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO). HMO clients should contact their HMO for further information.

Medicare and Medicaid require that a physician certify that a patient is confined to his/her home. A patient must be homebound to qualify for services. Generally speaking, a patient will be considered homebound if he/she has a condition due to an illness or injury that restricts his/her ability to leave his/her place of residence. Absences from the home must be infrequent and of a short duration. These absences may include absences for medical treatment and/or services at an adult day care that is licensed or certified by the State, or accredited, to furnish adult day care services.

Medicare and Medicaid services may only be rendered with the specific orders (prescription) of a physician. This would also require a qualifying diagnosis.

Medicare does NOT allow for a home health aide once skilled services have ended and are no longer necessary. Medicaid does allow the services of a home health aide without a qualifying service. However, all applicable criteria must be met.

In the State of Florida, patients who reside in an assisted living facility are eligible for home health care services, so long as the assisted living facility does NOT provide those services.

Private Insurance:

Due to the numerous insurance policies and their variations, we must verify patient benefits, limitations, and exclusions for each client on a "patient by patient" basis. Please call, we will be happy to research the information.

Private Pay:
You may select any level of service you desire. A regimen will be established based upon your requested needs. Costs for services vary.
