What’s home health care?

Home health care can be less expensive, more convenient, and provides many of the same services that are provided in hospital or skilled nursing facilities. The services must be skilled and appropriate for provision in the home, ordered by a physician and you must have a physician who will follow your plan of care while you are a patient of home health.
