How can I get Home Health Care?

A physician must order home health care services and patients must meet certain criteria to receive services. The physician contacts the medical professionals at Baptist Home Health Care directly to order the specific services needed by the patient.

Baptist Home Health Care accepts and files for most insurance plans, as well as Medicare, Medicaid and private pay. You may call the referral line and speak to one of the nurses to determine eligibility.
