Home Health Care Benefits
People often recover more quickly when recuperating at home if appropriate care is available. Needed treatment or therapy—such as services from nurses or physical therapists—can be provided in the comfort of your own home as long as services are ordered by your primary care physician (PCP) or treating physician and are provided by a participating Coordinated Home Health Care agency and as long as your condition warrants these services.
Network Blue New England pays benefits for covered charges made by a participating Coordinated Home Health Care agency or a participating Visiting Nurse Association at 100% when you use a Network Blue network provider.
Medically necessary home health care services and supplies include:
- Part-time home health aide services, consisting primarily of care for the patient
- Part-time nursing care
- Physical therapy
