Yes, we work with many different long-term care insurance companies and would be glad to contact yours to see what type of documentation they require in order to cover our services.

DOES MEDICARE PAY FOR THIS TYPE OF SERVICE?

Some private insurance companies do pay for this service. Check with your individual insurance company to see if they cover this type of service.

No, our rate consists of our caregiver’s wages, payroll taxes, benefits, federal and state unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation insurance, and professional and general liability insurance. No money is ever exchanged between our clients and our caregivers.

ISN’T HOME CARE EXPENSIVE? WHAT ARE YOUR RATES?

Our rates depend on the type of services you or your loved one needs, but the cost is much less than the cost of alternative types of care, such as assisted living.  Plus, you can set your own schedule, for as many or as few hours of services you need.  We customize our services to your needs and budget.

As a non-medical home care provider we are only allowed to provide medication reminders after the medications are set up in pillboxes by the family, home care, or hospice company.
