For many people, “healthcare” still means waiting rooms, long drives to appointments, and juggling schedules to make time for a doctor visit. But there’s a better way—one that’s often misunderstood or overlooked entirely: home health care.
Despite what some may think, home health services aren’t just for the elderly or only for those leaving the hospital. In reality, millions of Americans qualify for home healthcare services that are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance plans—often at no additional cost compared to traditional care.
Common Misconceptions About Home Health Care
Let’s clear up a few of the most common myths:
- “Home health care is only for people at the end of life.”
Not true. Home health includes skilled nursing, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and more—for people recovering from surgery, managing chronic conditions, or needing support with daily health routines. - “It’s more expensive than going to a doctor.”
In most cases, it’s not more expensive—and is often covered 100% by insurance if prescribed by your physician. - “It’s complicated to get started.”
Actually, it’s simple. You can ask your doctor to prescribe home health services through Tucson Medical Home Health, or call us directly and we’ll help coordinate everything.
