What Payment Options Does Visiting Angels Accept in San Diego, CA?
As a private pay home care agency, Visiting Angels San Diego cannot accept private health insurance, Medicare or Medicaid to cover the costs of our in-home senior care services. However, we do accept a variety of payment options that can make our services more affordable for families in the San Diego Metro area.
Veterans Benefits
Visiting Angels San Diego is part of the Veterans Affairs (VA) Community Care Network. This means elderly veterans in the San Diego Metro area who receive a referral to use our home care services can have the cost of their care covered by the VA. Our team greatly appreciates our veterans' dedication to protecting our country, so we want to ensure they can receive the support they need to remain at home as they age without having to worry about costs.
In order to be eligible for subsidized home care from the VA Community Care Network, your senior loved one will need to reach out to their primary care physician or social worker through the VA and request a Community Care Network Home Evaluation. If they determine your loved one is eligible for professional in-home senior care, they will assign a VA case manager to perform a Care Needs Evaluation. From there, your loved one can select Visiting Angels San Diego as their home care provider.
Long-Term Care Insurance
Most traditional health and medical insurance plans don't cover long-term care services. However, a specific insurance policy called long-term care insurance can cover your loved one's care expenses should they need long-term care in the future.
The cost and benefits of this policy will vary. If someone already needs care, they won't qualify for long-term care insurance.
Typically, adults in their 40s and 50s take out this policy to start saving for future care needs. Check with your loved one and their insurance broker to see if they have this type of policy. Long-term care insurance can cover various in-home senior care services from Visiting Angels San Diego.
