Is this non-medical home care service covered by Medicare?
Medicare does pay for nurse visits for skilled medical home health needs. However, Medicare does not pay for non-medical caregiver lengthy visits, or provide a caregiver for many reoccurring hours of care in the home. Frequently, patients need additional non-medical caregiver assistance beyond the short Medicare nurse visits to remain healthy and safe in their home. The Medicare company and Approved In Home Care coordinate schedules to assist patients with the best service, to avoid duplication of efforts.
