How do I choose a Greenville home health agency?

Ask whether the agency is Medicare-certified for the services ordered, how soon it can start after discharge, how often the nurse and therapists will visit, and who answers the phone after hours; the hospital or physician's order sets what Medicare covers.

Every licensed agency is on the home health and hospice roster, with the number of counties its license covers. Ask too whether the agency has worked with your parent's doctors before, because a nurse who already knows the practice's routines can make the first weeks after discharge smoother.
