Home Health

Home health is a wide range of medical services provided in the comfort of your own home. It’s less expensive, and if you’re coming home from a hospital stay or a skilled nursing facility, it can help keep you out of the emergency room and improve your recovery time. Being at home, you can focus on your road to recovery and get safety suggestions in your home environment. Home health care is provided by specialists under the direction of your physician. Our home health professionals include:

  • Skilled nurses, high-tech nurses and wound care nurses
  • Physical, occupational and speech therapists
  • Medical social workers
  • Home health aides

How to Get Started

Once we receive a home health order from your physician, social worker or discharge planner, our team will schedule a home visit appointment within 24 to 48 hours.

We accept most major insurance carriers, Medicare, Medicaid, MMAI and private pay. If your insurance requires authorization, we’ll work to get that done.

Care is personalized to your medical condition and your home. Medicare and all other insurance companies require that we coordinate with a primary care physician from start to finish. You must see your physician within 30 days to ensure they have your most recent health information. If you do not have a primary care physician or prefer to have a physician see you at home, we can arrange for a visiting physician to see you.
