In-Home Health Care

In-Home Health Care

M-Care Healthcare provides in-home health care, also called house calls, to qualifying patients. 
 
Medicare considers you homebound if:
  1. You need the help of another person or medical equipment such as crutches, a walker, or a wheelchair to leave your home.
  2. Your medical provider believes that your health or illness could get worse if you leave your home.
  3. And, it is difficult for you to leave your home and you typically cannot do so.

Our providers will decide if you are homebound based on their evaluation of your condition. If found to be homebound, you will be eligible to receive in-home primary health care visits by M-Care. You may also be eligible for in-home nursing, therapy (such as physical, occupational, or speech), and/or medical social worker visits.  We work with all local home health and hospice companies and you are free to choose which company you would like.

It’s important to note that even if you are homebound, you can still leave your home for medical treatment, religious services, and/or to attend a licensed or accredited adult day care center without putting your homebound status at risk. Leaving home for short periods of time or for special non-medical events, such as a family reunion, funeral, or graduation, does not affect your homebound status. You may also take occasional trips to the barber or beauty parlor.

Most insurance carriers cover in-home primary health care for qualifying patients.

Due to Covid-19 ramping back up in our community, we are taking extra precautions to keep our patients and our staff safe.

Our updated Covid policy will be in effect starting July 20, 2020:

  • We are scheduling both in-person and telehealth visits depending on the nature of the appointment. This allows us to limit the number of people in our waiting room without limiting the number of patients we can see per day. Thank you for your understanding!
  • If you have an in-person visit, you must wear a mask.
  • If you do have an in-person visit, please do not bring another person with you unless you are a minor with a parent or guardian, or a caregiver.
  • If you are feeling sick, have a fever, or cough, loss of smell, or other symptoms, please contact us to reschedule your appointment or for a telehealth appointment instead.
