Paying for home care in Phoenix, Arizona

Families often combine various payment methods to pay for home care in Phoenix. Many families pull together their own funds, which may include personal income, savings, retirement funds, or health saving accounts (HSAs). Depending on circumstances, families may also turn to funds from reverse mortgages, life insurance policies, or long-term care insurance. Additionally, qualifying individuals may use public sources to finance home care costs, including veterans benefits, Medicaid, and Medicare, if they’re eligible.

Does Medicare pay for home care in Phoenix?

Yes, Medicare will pay for home care services, but Medicare only partially covers the cost of medical home health services (HHC) ordered by a doctor to treat illness or injury at home. To be covered, services must also be provided by a Medicare-certified home health care provider. For nonmedical home care services to be covered by Medicare, they must be a necessary part of the medical care services.[01]

Does Medicaid pay for home care in Phoenix?

Yes, Arizona’s Medicaid program for seniors 65+ or individuals with a disability, called Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) Medical Assistance, covers in-home medical care services. It doesn’t cover the cost of nonmedical in-home care, but it does cover home health care costs under the Arizona Long Term Care (ALTCS) program.[02]

To apply for Medicaid in Arizona, seniors and their families can fill out the AHCCCS Medical Assistance application.

Where do I get information on veterans benefits in Phoenix?

If you have any questions about veterans benefits, including your eligibility status for benefits that could help cover the cost of home care, you can schedule an appointment online with Veteran Benefits Counselors (VBCs) at the Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services (ADVS). These counselors answer questions about benefit eligibility, prepare and submit your benefits applications, appeal denied claims, and refer you to other local veteran programs for additional benefits. If you have trouble scheduling an appointment online, call the ADVS VBC program directly at 602-535-1215.

To qualify for veterans benefits in Phoenix, veterans typically must be enrolled in VA health care, meet clinical criteria, and live in an area with service or program availability.

What other Phoenix services help seniors age in place?

For Phoenix seniors who need help applying for benefits or learning about their options, the following programs can help:

  • Arizona’s State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) offers free Medicare counseling to eligible seniors. SHIP counselors can help you with the Medicare application process and answer any questions you may have about benefits.
  • AZ LINKS is an information system run by the state that offers an Options Counselor program to help aging adults and their caregivers plan for the future. AZ LINKS offers several resources to help families start a conversation about long-term care.
  • Phoenix’s Area Agency on Aging for Maricopa County offers several programs that advocate for seniors, help them modify their homes, and find recreational opportunities in the area.

How to choose the right Phoenix home care agency

With various home care agencies in Phoenix, finding the most suitable option for you or your loved one can be daunting. That’s precisely why we encourage families to investigate using the information below to learn about potential agencies’ licensure, accreditation, hiring practices, fees, and minimum care requirements.

Home care services range from simple, nonmedical at-home support to complex in-home medical care. If your aging loved one requires medical or skilled nursing care, home health care provided by a medical professional may be among the needed services. Some home health care services include wound care, medication administration, and health monitoring. If you need home health care, talk to your doctor or social worker about potential recommendations.

Knowing the type of care needed and all of the information on Arizona’s home care agency requirements can help you feel more confident about choosing a caregiver or agency. It can also help you eliminate options from the get-go.

On this page, you’ll find both home care agencies providing a range of nonmedical and medical services. Some agencies may offer a mix of both types of services to those in the Phoenix area. You can talk to our Senior Living Advisors to better understand the local options and see which might fit your family’s needs.

Licensure and accreditation

Arizona home care agencies offering only nonmedical services don’t have to obtain a license, so there’s no government agency that regulates home care practices.[03] The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) does license and regulate home health care agencies. To get more information on home health licensing, you can reach out to the ADHS’ Bureau of Medical Facilities Licensing.

Hiring practices

Because Arizona home care agencies that only provide nonmedical services aren’t required to be licensed, there are no mandatory screening practices for in-home caregivers. However, many agencies hold themselves to certain standards, so they often have their own requirements. Some hiring practices may include:

  • Background checks
  • Required caregiver certifications or training programs
  • On-the-job training
  • Annual training to stay up-to-date with practices

To understand a potential home care agency’s staff screening practices, be sure to ask them specific questions about their hiring process when inquiring.

Fees and minimums

Some Phoenix home care agencies may have fees and minimums outside of their standard hourly cost. To be prepared, be sure to ask an agency about the following:

  • Cost of an initial assessment (sometimes free)
  • Deposits
  • Minimum hours of care required
  • Cost of overnight care or care during weekends or holidays
  • Minimum age requirement to receive care
