How is Home Health Care Paid For?
Home care and home health care services can be paid for by: Patient and family (out of pocket), Public third-party payers such as Medicare, Medicaid, and the Veterans Administration, or Private third-party payers such as health insurance companies and managed care plans. Often, these services are paid by some third party. Third party payors have specific eligibility and coverage requirements, and it is important that caregivers be aware of these requirements so that payment to care providers can be efficiently made without any interruptions in needed services.
