Getting started
Who can contact Solution Home Healthcare about care?
The person seeking care, a family member or authorized representative, and a healthcare professional may contact the agency. We will explain what information or permissions are needed for the next step.
What happens during an in-home assessment?
An assessment typically explores daily routines, the home environment, safety considerations, personal preferences, current supports, and the type and frequency of help being considered. The exact process should be confirmed with the office.
Services
What is the difference between skilled nursing and personal care?
Skilled nursing involves clinical tasks performed by a licensed nurse under an appropriate care arrangement. Personal care focuses on everyday activities such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and routines. Eligibility and scope are determined individually.
Can care be scheduled for only a few hours?
Visit length and frequency depend on the requested service, assessment, staffing, and applicable program requirements. Call the office to discuss the schedule you have in mind.
How is a caregiver assigned?
Assignments may consider the care plan, required skills, availability, communication needs, and personal preferences. Ask the office about the current matching and reassignment process.
Payment
Does insurance pay for home healthcare?
Coverage varies by plan, program, eligibility, provider orders, and the type of service. The agency must verify its current payer participation before services are described as covered.
Can I pay privately for care?
Private-pay arrangements may be available for some services. Request a written explanation of rates, minimum visit requirements, billing timing, and cancellation terms before agreeing to care.
Referrals
Can a hospital or physician make a referral?
Healthcare professionals may contact the agency to discuss a referral. The website form is only for a general inquiry and should not include protected health information or clinical documents.
