Cost and Insurance Coverage

Medical Care

Haven Home Health accepts Medicare and other selected private insurances. Medicare beneficiaries are not responsible for co-payments or a deductible for home health services covered by Medicare Part A. If you are a member of a Medicare HMO or other private plan, you may be subject to certain out-of-pocket costs. Please tell a Haven employee, and we will contact your plan to determine coverage and eligibility. Please call 801-676-6000 for insurance coverage in your area.

The three criteria for admission to home care are:

• You are homebound (it requires great effort or assistance in order to leave your home and outings are infrequent and of short duration).
• You are in need of intermittent health care that requires skilled nursing, speech therapy, or physical therapy.
• Your primary care physician must sign the initial plan of care.

You may benefit from home care if:

• You are recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery.
• You are disabled.
• You are recovering from or have experienced a stroke, heart condition, hypertension, cancer, diabetes, lung disease, etc.

The Medicare home health benefit does not cover shift work, 24-hour care, live-in assistance,
or non-medical care. 

Non-Medical Care

We serve all clients and individuals, and prices are determined based on type of care. Most clients or family members pay for private duty care out-of-pocket. Most insurance plans do not cover private duty care unless the prospective client has a long-term care insurance policy. Please call 801-676-6000 for a free assessment.

Hospice Care

Haven Hospice accepts Medicare and other selected private insurances. Medicare beneficiaries are not responsible for co-payments or a deductible for hospice services covered by Medicare Part A. If you are a member of a Medicare HMO or other private plan, you may be subject to certain out-of-pocket costs.
