  • Your team was great! My entire family believed that APEX, especially Mary, pulled miracles on Friday evening when my mom was admitted.  Somehow your team was able to get a hospital bed, oxygen, a shower chair, and medications within hours.  This is a truly amazing service.  My mom was a mess this weekend and we could not have managed her care without the APEX team.  Sweglo Family

FAQ

How much does a home health aide care cost?

Home health care costs are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and major insurance plans if you're receiving home health services with nursing or therapy from a Medicare-certified provider as prescribed by your doctor. Medicare doesn't cover home health aide services alone, but it's an affordable option with comprehensive team support.

What's the difference between a home health aide and a personal care aide?

Home health aides assist with bathing, grooming, dressing, and mobility as part of Medicare-covered home health care. Personal care aides provide similar services in addition to companionship and housekeeping, usually paid out-of-pocket for personal care needs.
