What home health aide may include

Home health aide services may help with personal care tasks during a qualifying home health episode. Aide support is different from long-shift private caregiving and is usually tied to the skilled plan of care.

Ask agencies what aide support is available, how often visits can occur, and whether the patient also needs skilled nursing or therapy under the care plan.

Common home health aide tasks

  • Bathing and grooming support
  • Dressing or toileting help
  • Safe movement support
  • Simple personal care during a home health episode
  • Coordination with nursing or therapy visits

Questions to ask before choosing an agency

  • Is aide support available with this care plan?
  • How often can aide visits happen?
  • What personal care tasks can the aide help with?
  • Is this Medicare home health or private-pay home care?

Home Health Aide FAQ

Does Medicare cover home health aide services?

Medicare may cover home health aide support only when it is part of an eligible home health plan of care. It usually does not cover aide help when personal care is the only need.

Is a home health aide the same as a caregiver?

Not always. Home health aide visits under Medicare home health are usually limited and tied to skilled care, while private caregivers may provide longer daily support.
