All Pointe Homecare, Llc

What this costs you

If a doctor certifies the patient is homebound and needs skilled nursing or therapy, Medicare pays this agency directly and the patient pays nothing for the covered visits. Equipment is billed separately at 20% of the Medicare-approved amount. Home health does not pay for round-the-clock care, meals, or help with bathing and dressing on its own, those are the costs families are most often surprised by.

Did it work?

Home health is judged on whether the patient stayed home, stayed out of hospital and got more capable. These are this agency's numbers against the national median.

From the HHCAHPS survey, which CMS sends to the agency's own patients after care. These are not online reviews and the agency cannot select who is asked. Percentages are the share who gave the best possible answer. 23% of those asked replied.

Published, and deliberately not graded on

Before weighting anything we checked which direction each CMS measure actually runs, by comparing it against the patient survey across every agency in the country. These did not survive that check. They are here because they are part of the public record, and out of the grade because scoring them would make our letters worse, not better.

Falls with major injury

1.49%

Also runs backwards, in every size band. It appears to measure whether an agency records adverse events rather than whether they happen. Left out of the grade.
