Do You Qualify for Home Health Care? Find Out in Minutes.

One of the biggest reasons families delay home health care is uncertainty — they’re not sure whether they qualify, what the criteria are, or which program applies to their situation. This checker is designed to remove that uncertainty. It won’t give you a legal determination, but it will give you a clear, honest picture of where you likely stand.

The checker works in four steps. First, you answer four general yes/no questions that apply to any home health care program — location, living situation, care needs, and physician involvement. Then you review four program-specific cards: Medicare home health, Florida Medicaid waiver, private or long-term care insurance, and private pay. Each card lists the key eligibility criteria in plain language so you can check off what applies. The third section covers additional Medicare-specific questions for those who believe they may qualify under Part A or Part B. Finally, a results section helps you interpret your answers: likely eligible, possibly eligible, or explore alternative options.

City Choice accepts all four of these pathways. We are Medicare-certified, Medicaid-enrolled, and work with most major insurance carriers in Florida. If you’re paying privately, there are no insurance hurdles and care can often begin within 24 to 48 hours.

Who This Is For

  • You've been told you might not qualify for Medicare home health and want to check the criteria yourself
  • You're exploring Medicaid waiver options in Florida and don't know where to start
  • You have long-term care insurance and aren't sure if it covers home health services
  • You want to understand all your options before calling an agency
