Allied Tender Care Health Services Inc

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. Medicare spends 0.71× the national average per episode of care at this agency. That is what the federal government spends, not what a family pays, and it is not part of our grade.

What patients said

CMS has not published survey results for this agency. It only reports them once enough patients have completed the questionnaire, so smaller agencies often have none. That is a gap in the data, not a mark against the agency, ask them directly how many patients they served last year and whether they run their own survey.

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.
