Questions about home health
Who qualifies for Medicare home health?
Generally, you must need qualifying intermittent skilled services and meet Medicare’s homebound requirements. A doctor or another qualified healthcare provider must assess your need and order the care.
Does homebound mean I can never leave home?
No. Medicare permits medical appointments and certain short or infrequent outings. The key issue is whether leaving home takes considerable effort or requires help.
