Types of VA Home Health Benefits
Aid and Attendance Program
The Aid and Attendance benefit offers financial support to veterans and surviving spouses who need help with daily activities due to age, disability, or a health condition. Qualified veterans will have completed 90 days of active service. Once enrolled, this benefit is added to the monthly VA pension, and can be used to pay for in-home care, assisted living, or nursing home care.
Homemaker and Home Health Aide (H/HHA) Program
The Home Health Aide Care Program offers in-home health care services that have been ordered by a VA physician. Eligibility requirements state that the veteran must be enrolled in the VA health care system, and also show a clinical need for types of care including daily living assistance, medication management, physical therapy, and homemaking services.
Eligibility will be determined by VA health care providers, and a care plan developed by your VA care team. Once approved, this benefit is paid out directly to home care providers to cover the cost of your care.
When Should Veterans Apply For Benefits?
The best time to apply for home care benefits through the VA is well before they are needed. Application wait times can be very long; the application should be started as soon as possible. This way, you are more likely to be approved in time to avoid the high costs of paying out of pocket while you wait, or stretching the resources of family caregivers beyond what is wise or healthy.
How Can I Qualify for Veterans’ Home Care?
Anyone that served in the U.S. military may be eligible for financial assistance to help pay for home care. To get started, contact us and let us work with you and your VA medical team. The VA will determine eligibility and what services will be helpful. We will partner closely with you to create a care plan that meets your needs and expectations. Visiting Angels of Midland, TX has a close working relationship with local VA offices and other organizations to make certain that veterans receive all of the benefits they are entitled to.
We know that needing home care can feel overwhelming, and the process is intimidating. We are here to help, completely free of charge.
