Does Medicare Advantage cover home health care?
Yes, if your doctor orders it. However, Medicare does not cover 24-hour-a-day care at your home, home meal delivery, homemaker services (like shopping and cleaning) unrelated to your care plan, or custodial or personal care that helps you with daily living activities (like bathing, dressing, or using the bathroom), when this is the only care you need. Some Medicare Advantage plans include some homemaker services when returning home from the hospital, so ask your broker.
