Home health or home care? Medicare-certified home health agencies provide skilled care a doctor orders, like nursing and physical therapy, usually for a few weeks after an illness or hospital stay. Medicare pays for it when your parent qualifies. Everyday help with bathing, meals or company is private home care, which Medicare doesn't cover; find help at home or use the care matcher below.
