Paying For Home Health Care

Medicaid provides home care coverage for individuals and home care agencies that meet the same qualifications required to obtain Original Fee-For-Service Medicare.

Federal regulations require coverage for at least the following services:

• Intermittent and part-time home care aide services
• Medical supplies
• Medical equipment

Additional covered services vary from state to state, but may include:

• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Speech therapy
• Medical social services

To determine the exact services covered in your state, contact your State Medicaid office. You can find contact information for your state's Medicaid office(s) atwww.colorado2.com/medicaid/states.html.
