I was dropped by a home health agency, because they said I was not homebound, and when I called them they said I didn't have enough reasons for a nurse to come but they told my case manager that it was. I was not homebound, even though she told them insurance would pay even if I was not homebound. I had had this agency, since I moved to Prairie Village, 18 years ago. What do the guidelines say about the determination for homebound. I don't drive that I go to doctors and two stores to buy things. I found another agency that would take me. I have Blue Cross right now, and I don't know what will happen, when my stepmom retires and I have Medicare/Medicaid. The agency I have does not take Medicaid. Just wondering if anyone else has had this experience and what did you do. It seems so unfair that we should have to stay at home 24/7 days of the week to get a nurse to help us with cultures, looking at skin breakdown and blood work on a routine basis. Dana.
