What is home health care, and what is it not?
Home health care is skilled medical care at home, ordered by a doctor and delivered in visits by nurses and therapists. It is not the same thing as a caregiver who helps with daily living.
| Home health (this page) | Non-medical home care | |
|---|---|---|
| Who provides it | Nurses, physical, occupational and speech therapists, aides under a nurse's plan | Caregivers, also called personal care attendants |
| What it is for | Recovery after a hospital stay, wound care, therapy, managing a new diagnosis | Bathing, dressing, meals, company, supervision |
| How it is delivered | Scheduled visits, often a few a week | Shifts, from a few hours to around the clock |
| Who usually pays | Medicare, when you are homebound and need skilled care | The family, long-term care insurance, or a Medicaid waiver |
| Where to look | The table above | Licensed home care agencies in Greensboro |
Does Medicare pay for home health care in North Carolina?
Yes, when the conditions are met. Original Medicare pays for covered home health visits with no copay if a doctor certifies that you are homebound and need part-time skilled nursing or therapy, and the agency is Medicare-certified. It does not pay for 24-hour care, meal delivery, or help with bathing and dressing when that is the only care you need.
Medicare Advantage plans cover the same services but can require prior approval and an in-network agency, so check the plan before choosing from this list.
How should you read Medicare's two star ratings?
The quality of patient care rating summarizes clinical results: whether care started on time and whether patients improved at walking, bathing, breathing and managing medicines. The patient survey rating summarizes what patients said about communication, professionalism and whether they would recommend the agency.
The two can disagree. An agency can have strong clinical results and middling survey answers, or the reverse, which is why each agency page shows both in full.
