What home health includes in Pennsylvania
Home health delivers skilled nursing and therapy visits at home under a physician's order — wound care, injections, physical therapy — usually after a hospital or rehab stay.
Home health agencies are licensed in Pennsylvania by the Department of Health and, when medically necessary after a qualifying event, are frequently Medicare-covered. A typical monthly range is $140 to $175 per visit, often Medicare-covered when ordered.
Before you tour, know what actually predicts quality:
- that the agency is Medicare-certified if you're using the Medicare benefit
- how quickly they can start after a hospital discharge
- the agency's quality scores on Medicare's Care Compare
