Private Pay

Probably the least frequent payment source for home health care is self-pay in which home health agency reimbursement is made by the patient, family members, or other source of private income. This source is obviously the least restrictive in terms of eligibility requirements since it is basically a contract between a client/family and the agency.

An agency's own admission requirements will dictate the eligibility requirements and will probably include physician's orders at a minimum. This source is seldom seen in home health care because the cost of meeting complex requirements for third party payors has caused visit charges to be higher than many individuals can manage alone.
