Do I qualify for home health care?
According to Medicare, a patient must be considered home bound to qualify for home health services. Home bound is defined as being in a state where leaving the home requires a considerable and taxing effort. In addition, a medical need must be currently present that can be treated at home.
How do I receive home health care?
Most Medicare and Medicaid patients will automatically qualify for our services. For private insurance patients and workers compensation, our staff will try to obtain pre-authorization for you. All you have to do is call and we will take care of the rest!
Do I need a doctor's referral?
Yes. For Medicare, Medicaid, Worker's Compensation and most Private Insurances, a doctor's referral is required. If your doctor feels that you qualify for home care, just tell him that you want Amistad and their staff will take care of the rest.
Does Amistad offer private pay services?
Yes. If you do not have insurance or do not want to go through your insurance, we offer very reasonable rates for all of our services. Call today to find out more.
