Paying for home care in Denver, Colorado

Denver families often combine private pay methods to cover home care costs. This can include retirement savings, pensions, life insurance, or even health savings accounts (HSAs). Some families first think to look to private health insurance to cover home care costs. However, private health insurance only covers medical services. So, unless nonmedical home care services are considered a medically necessary component of at-home medical care, health insurance is unlikely to cover the costs.

Qualifying individuals may be able to cover some health-related home care costs with public health insurance like Medicaid or Medicare. Qualifying veterans and their surviving spouses may qualify for benefits through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Does Medicare pay for home care in Denver?

Yes, Medicare can partially pay for home care services in Denver as long as they are a medically necessary and ordered by a doctor to treat illness or injury at home. To be covered under Medicare, care services must be provided by a Medicare-certified home health care provider.[01] Any home care services not deemed medically necessary may not be covered by Medicare.

Does Medicaid pay for home care in Denver?

Yes, Colorado’s Medicaid program, Health First Colorado, offers the Elderly, Blind, and Disabled Waiver (EBD) which can pay for some medically necessary home care services. For the EBD waiver to cover home care services, an individual must qualify for home health care, a medical form of home care prescribed by a doctor to treat illness or injury.

Covered home care services vary depending on one’s condition, but they may include the following:

  • Personal care (assistance with activities of daily living)
  • Homemaker services (light housework, meal preparation, shopping, etc.)
  • Health maintenance (medication management, transfer assistance, vitals monitoring)

What other Denver services help seniors age in place?

Denver seniors can reach out to the following programs if they need help with understanding their health insurance benefits or applying for them:

Where do I get information about veterans benefits in Denver?

How to choose the right Denver home care agency

As you review the local home care agencies in Denver, we’ve compiled information to give you the confidence you need to select the best fit for your family. Our listings include agencies that provide a range of home care services, from simple homemaker services to skilled nursing. If you or your loved one needs medical care at home, consider talking to your doctor or social worker for recommendations.

For anyone looking into Denver home care agencies, we recommend reviewing their licensure processes, hiring practices, and minimum care requirements. Learning this information beforehand can help you determine how well a prospective home care agency is equipped to care for a loved one.

Licensure and accreditation

Colorado home care agencies are licensed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). The CDPHE has two classifications for license types:[01]

  • Class A home care agencies provide skilled health care services provided by a licensed medical professional such as a licensed nurse, certified nursing assistant, or licensed therapy and respiratory professional. They can also provide personal care services.
  • Class B home care agencies only provide personal care services. Personal care workers must complete training that includes learning appropriate personal care techniques, emergency preparedness, communication techniques, and more.

Denver residents can use the CDPHE find and compare facilities tool to view investigation results of a prospective home care agency’s citations. These results show the state requirements met by specific agencies, their past violations, and any citations. Home care agency citations may include failure to renew their license or meet state requirements. If the search tool is not working, you can email the cdphe_hfemsd_records@state.co.us for specific information on a licensed agency.

Hiring practices

In Colorado, home care agencies must define required competence, qualifications, and experience of staff, which must then be reviewed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Agencies must also conduct criminal background checks on their staff. Once hired, staff members must undergo training outlined by the agency and employee evaluations on an annual basis.[02]

To remain competitive in Denver, home care agencies may have additional requirements for staff, like additional training or certifications above the state requirements. Be sure to ask about this when considering an agency.

Fees and minimums

Costs, fees, and minimum requirements vary between home care agencies in Denver. To confidently choose a home care agency, be sure to ask about the following:

  • Cost of an initial needs assessment (sometimes free)
  • Deposits or upfront fees
  • Minimum hours or care required
  • Minimum age requirement
  • Varying overnight, holiday, or weekend costs
