What should patients expect from home health care?

• Doctor’s orders are needed to start care. Once the doctor refers a patient for home health services, the home health agency will schedule an appointment and come to the patient’s home to talk about patient’s needs and ask some questions about health.
• Health insurance is verified in our office and if there is any cost to the patient, we will notify the patient before beginning care.
• The clinician will then develop a care plan with the patient addressing all goals.
• Other disciplines may or will be ordered to meet patient goals.
• The home health agency staff will also talk to the doctor/doctor’s office staff about the patients care and keep the doctor updated about the patient’s progress.
• It’s important that home health staff see the patient as often as ordered at the start of care.
• All visits from Clinicians are around 45 minutes to 1 hour unless more time is needed.
