Frequently Asked Questions
Answers To Commonly Questions
What is home healthcare?
Home healthcare refers to medical services provided in a patient’s home by licensed professionals, such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, or skilled nurses. These services are typically ordered by a physician and may be covered by Medicare when medically necessary.
Are these services covered by Medicare or insurance?
In many cases, Medicare and other insurance programs may cover home health services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, or skilled nursing when eligibility requirements are met. Coverage varies based on medical necessity, provider availability, and physician approval.
How does CareWaiz work?
CareWaiz is not a home health agency. We help individuals understand their options and connect eligible patients with licensed home health providers in their area. Our role is to simplify the process and help you take the next step toward receiving care at home.
Is there any cost to check eligibility?
No. The eligibility check is free and does not obligate you to receive services. Coverage and costs, if any, are determined by your insurance and the licensed provider.
Who can benefit from home healthcare services?
Home healthcare may benefit individuals recovering from surgery, illness, injury, or hospitalization, as well as those experiencing mobility issues, balance problems, or chronic conditions that make travel difficult. Eligibility depends on medical need and a physician’s order.
Are the providers licensed and qualified?
Yes. CareWaiz connects individuals with licensed home health agencies and medical professionals who meet state and federal requirements. All services are provided by credentialed providers, not independent caregivers.
What is the process to get started?
The process typically includes:
1. A free eligibility check
2. Review of medical needs
3. Coordination with a licensed provider
4. Physician order (if required)
You can start by calling to see if you may qualify.
Do I need a doctor’s order?
Most Medicare-covered home health services require a physician’s order. If you don’t currently have one, the provider may help guide you through the next steps.
