That has got to be mighty expensive for a government program already facing some pretty serious financial straits, no?

Home health is cheaper than hospital or nursing home (first 90 days).

If this actually happens, it would be a good development.

Home health is covered by Medicare. Traditional Medicare. Retired HH RN.

I have been told Medicare NO longer covers home health care.


What’s the truth?

Medicaid had a waiver program for caregivers. Unfortunately a lot of caregivers collect money and don’t do care. Remember one instance when care giver was in jail and still getting checks.

I'm aware. Without specifics or context, I assumed he had notion that coverage had increased.

I was just listening to the Democrat for candidate’s speech and heard this promised. I don’t know anything more about it really.

And as more and more people eat and drink themselves into chronic (and terminal albeit usually by choice) metabolic disease and all the fun shite that comes with it, the demand continues to skyrocket.

Still covers it.

Straight MCR is better than an Advantage plan for covering HH visits.
