Home Health Care
Covered services include up to 120 home health care visits
per calendar year for:
- Part-time or intermittent nursing care by or supervised
by an RN;
- Part-time or intermittent services of a home health
aide; or
- Physical, occupational or speech therapy.
Necessary medical supplies or medicine prescribed by a doctor and lawfully dispensed by the home health agency and laboratory services are covered. All services must be provided under the continuous direction of a physician and included in an approved home health care plan. Each visit by a representative of the agency will be considered one visit. However, if a home health aide visit extends beyond four hours, each additional four hours or part thereof will count as an additional visit.
