Referrals for RAVNAH home health and hospice care come from a variety of sources including:
- hospitals
- discharge planners physicians,
- community health and social service agencies
- clients and their family members
Our nurses are here to help you 24 hours a day, seven days a week and we can often begin home care services within 24 hours of receiving a referral. If needed, a RAVNAH nurse will make a no-charge evaluation visit to determine if home health services are necessary and how they might be useful.
Payment for home care comes from many sources, including Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, the United Way of Rutland County, grants, city and town appropriations, and donations from individuals, companies and foundations.
When a client has limited or no insurance, and the service is medically necessary, RAVNAH uses a sliding fee scale based on the patient’s ability to pay.
