If the patient is homebound and meets other Medicare and/or Medicaid guidelines, the services provided by the agency will be covered and paid for by Medicare and/or Medicaid. There may be services not fully covered by these programs. The patient will be made aware of any cost to them at the time of admission. If the patient has commercial insurance, the staff will contact the insurance carrier to determine coverage under their plan. Coverage and benefits are different for each individual. Health insurance in most cases does not cover the entire cost of home health care. The patient is made aware of their responsibility of payment at the time of admission. In most cases, both government-funded and insurance-funded home health care require that patients receiving home care be homebound and unable to be out of their homes without assistance. patients who are able to drive themselves to the doctor or for out-patient services ordinarily would not qualify for home health services.
