How does Ambassador Home Health care
benefit my patient?
Ambassador Home Health offers a full line of home health
services by qualified professionals to help the patient achieve
and maintain independence at home. It has been established that
patients recuperate better at home than in a hospital or
facility.
How is Ambassador Home Health care beneficial for me the
physician?
Your
patients are offered the best team approach for quality care. In
the patient’s home, agency professionals are the eyes and ears
for the doctor. We assess the patient’s physiologic status and
home environment, including medication compliance and
understanding, nutrition, finances, family dynamics, and home
safety. We provide treatments specific to the patient’s needs
and physician orders.
Is there a lot of paperwork involved?
No! Actually, the physician’s office just has to call our agency
with orders or submit a form. A registered nurse will do a
comprehensive assessment and evaluation and admit the patient to
our care. A plan of treatment will be immediately sent to the
physician’s office for review and signature.
Do orders have to be updated?
Yes - but it is very simple. If the patient requires continued
care, at the end of the 60-day certification period, our agency
will deliver an updated plan of treatment. Reviewing the
certification plan is a Medicare billable service.
Does home care require a lot of phone
calls?
No. The same nurse will see a patient as much as possible. This
provides continuity of care and understanding of the patient’s
status. We will phone you only if there is a significant change
in the patient’s status.
What insurance do you accept?
We accept Medicare for homebound patients. We also accept many
private insurance benefits. If we do not participate with a
patient’s insurance, we will research and notify you of an
agency that can care for your patient.
Will the patient receive a bill?
No. We accept Medicare assignment and therefore do not bill the
patient for any portion (co-pay) of services billed. Patients
with private insurance may be billed for the patient
responsibility portion of their covered services.
Why should I use Ambassador Home Health?
Ambassador Home Health can customize care to meet your patient’s
specific needs. Our staff is extremely dedicated and caring
employees. Ambassador Home Health’s ethics are totally honest
and in compliance with all federal and state regulations. We do
not deviate.
