AdventHealth Home Health accepts most insurance plans, including Medicare. Our services are available to anyone who:

• Is under the care of a physician (only a physician can order home health services for their patient)
• Lives in Volusia or Flagler counties
• Is considered “homebound” and requires the skills of a registered nurse, physical therapist, and/or speech language pathologist, during the course of treatment

To qualify for benefits under the Medicare program, you must be considered “homebound”. Medicare considers a person to be “homebound” if:

• You require considerable and taxing effort to leave home.
• Absences from the home are infrequent and of short duration.
• If your physician has advised that it is unsafe for you to leave home due to your medical or psychiatric condition.

Examples of homebound status include:

• A patient who drives and can leave home without assistance is not considered homebound.
• Circumstances that qualify a person as homebound include:
• Walks with a walker, has difficulty going up and down steps to leave home; must have help to get in and out of car
• Can walk without direct assistance, but for short distances due to shortness of breath or other physical impairment
• Limited mobility caused by extreme weakness or severe pain
• Confused and unable to leave home unassisted
• Depression or withdrawal; refusal to leave home

Examples of allowable absences from the home include:

• Church attendance
• Beauty salon services
• Other non medical reasons if absences are infrequent, of short duration and require a considerable and taxing effort
• Visit to hospital, doctor’s office or healthcare facility
