FAQ
Does insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid cover in-home private-duty care?
No, unfortunately, private duty home care is typically not covered by traditional health insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. These services are often paid for out-of-pocket or through long-term care insurance, if applicable.
Should I hire a private caregiver or go through an agency?
Choosing a private duty agency like APEX Health Services comes with many advantages that people often overlook. A reputable agency ensures caregivers are insured, background-checked, and professionally trained. The agency also takes care of payroll, taxes, benefits, and workers’ compensation. The highest level of support can provide a sense of security and consistency in care.

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
