Private Duty for home care and home health care or Medicare Certification and Accreditation for your Home Health Care Business in Alaska

If your vision for your Alaska home care business extends beyond private pay services, you'll need to secure Private Duty or Medicare Certification and Accreditation.

Achieving accreditation is crucial because many Medicaid Programs and third-party payers require it as a prerequisite for credentialing you as a service provider.

For billing Medicare, your agency must operate as a health care provider offering skilled nursing services. Medicare coverage does not extend to non-medical home care, so a home care agency cannot bill Medicare for these services. If you aim to establish a Medicare-billable home health care agency in Alaska, you will need to obtain Medicare Certification and Accreditation. We are here to assist you through this process.

Compliance Audits, Licensure, & Accreditation Preparation

Have peace of mind knowing that we will go above and beyond to make sure your home care or home health care business is licensed and accredited. Our consultants review everything your agency has completed up until the point of survey and mock survey your agency prior to the actual license and accreditation surveys.

Not only have we been consulting new home care and home health care businesses for many years, but we have been and continue to operate successful home health care agencies today in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.

How will your home care business get paid as a provider?

We are here to guide you through the process of navigating various payment options and funding sources for your home care business, including:

Medicaid
Medicaid Waiver Programs
Medicare
Long and Short Term Insurance
Workers' Compensation
VA Programs
Private Pay
Grants (e.g., for Coal Miners, Peat Lung, etc.)
Third-Party Insurance (e.g., BCBS, CCA, Aetna, etc.)

We're dedicated to helping you understand and access these resources effectively.

Marketing Your Home Care Business in Alaska

As home health care agency owners, here’s the honest truth: YOU NEED EFFECTIVE MARKETERS! For many of you, that marketer will initially be yourself.
