Medicare is a federally funded program, generally for those 65 and older that may cover home health care services. These services include part time home health aides, part time skilled nursing care, rehabilitative services that include physical, occupational and speech therapies.
There are certain qualifications you must meet in order to qualify for Medicare. A patient must be homebound and in need of part time skilled nursing care or rehabilitative therapy.
Your physician and nurse from A&T Certified will work together to determine what supplies and services are needed as well as what kind of improvement should be expected and how long you will need services.
Before your home health services can begin A&T Certified will notify you about how much of your services will be covered by Medicare also which services and items are not included in the coverage. A&T Certified will bill Medicare which pays the full amount that is approved to cover home health care visits.
