Home care is health care and related services provided in the home. It involves patients and their families and includes a comprehensive plan of treatment and rehabilitation made in collaboration with the patient's physician.
Many insurance companies, Medicare or Medicaid pay for medically necessary home health services. Private insurance companies vary tremendously in their coverage of home care services.
HOW DO I GET HOME CARE SERVICES? There are many ways to obtain
home health services. Federal regulations require that you must always have your doctor's
referral, and there are several ways to obtain that referral. You can have your
doctor call VNASI and give them a referral. Then VNASI will contact you and arrange a time
to come to your house to initiate care. You or a family member or a friend can
contact VNASI directly. You will speak with a nurse who will contact your doctor for a
referral and then you will be contacted to arrange a time to initiate care.
