Medicare only covers home health services that Medicare-certified home health agencies provide directly or “under arrangement” with another provider that furnishes the services and then looks to the primary home health agency for payment.
Medicare covers home health services when: The patient is enrolled in Part A, Part B, or both parts of the Medicare Program The patient is eligible for coverage of home health services
Under Part B, you are eligible for home health care if you are homebound and need skilled care. There is no prior hospital stay requirement for Part B coverage of home health care. There is also no deductible or coinsurance for Part B-covered home health care.
Medicare’s home health benefit only pays for services you get from the home health agency. Other medical services and equipment are generally still covered as part of your other Medicare benefits. Note: Before your home health care begins, the home health agency should tell you how much of your bill Medicare will pay.
