Home Health Care

Description: Home health care includes services received due to a health problem or condition. These services may be medical (e.g., physical therapy; checking temperature, blood pressure, and pulse and respiration rates; or helping to give medications) or personal (e.g., cleaning, repairs, cooking, or companionship). For those persons using home health care, the Home Health section of the MEPS-HC questionnaire obtains information on the types of health care workers providing home health services, reasons for home health care, the nature of home health services provided, frequency of visits, length per visit, and duration of visits.

Publications: Publications are listed in reverse chronological order (most recent first).
