Home Health Care
Many health care treatments that were once offered only in a hospital or a doctor’s
office can now be done in your home. Home health care is usually less expensive,
more convenient, and just as effective as care you get in a hospital or skilled
nursing facility. Where possible, home health care helps you get better, regain your
independence, and become more self-sufficient. Home health care may also help to
maintain your current condition or level of function, or to slow decline.
Medicare pays for you to get health care services in your home if you meet certain
eligibility criteria, and the services are considered reasonable and necessary to treat your illness or injury.
Find out more about how to get those benefits through Original Medicare (Part A and Part B). If you get your Medicare benefits through a Medicare Advantage Plan or other Medicare health plan, check your plan’s membership materials and contact the plan for details about your Medicare-covered home health benefits.
