How much does home health care cost?

If Medicare covers your home health care, you pay $0 for the care itself. You pay 20% of the Medicare-approved cost for medical gear, like a hospital bed or a wheelchair. Care you hire on your own costs more. A private nurse at home runs a median of $90 an hour (CareScout Cost of Care Survey, 2025). See our guide to home health care costs and who pays for the full picture.

Does Medicare pay for home health care?

Yes. Medicare Part A and Part B pay for home health care when a doctor orders it, you need skilled nursing or therapy, and you are homebound. Homebound means it is hard for you to leave home. You pay $0 for the care itself. You pay 20% of the Medicare-approved cost for medical gear. Medicare Advantage plans cover home health too, with their own rules. A Medigap plan can pay the 20% gear cost toward the Original Medicare benefit.

What is the difference between home health and home care?

Home health is medical care at home. Nurses and therapists give it, and a doctor orders it. Home care is non-medical help at home, like bathing, cooking, cleaning, and rides. You hire home care on your own. Medicare does not pay for home care on its own.

Who else pays for home health care besides Medicare?

Medicaid pays for home health care for people who qualify. The VA covers home health for many veterans. Some long-term care insurance plans pay for care at home. You can also pay an agency out of pocket.
