In Home Care Services

Under Part A (Hospital Insurance), Original Medicare will cover eligible Home Health services such as:

• Part-time or “intermittent” skilled nursing care
• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Speech-language pathology services
• Medical Social Services
• Part-time or intermittent home health aide services
• Injectable osteoporosis drugs for women
  
  Usually, a home health care agency coordinates the services your doctor orders for you.

However, Original Medicare Part A does NOT pay for:

• 24-hour-a day care at home
• Meals delivered to your home
• Homemaker services (shopping, clearing, laundry), when this is the only care you need
• Custodial or personal care (bathing, dressing, eating, toileting), when this is the only care you need
