WHAT IS HOME HEALTH CARE (HHC)?
Home health care is a wide range of health and social services delivered at home to patients or persons recovering from an illness or injury, or to persons who are disabled and/or chronically ill and who are currently under the care of a physician. In the United States, HHC providers are called "Home Health Care Agencies."

IS HHC A LICENSED PRACTICE? 

Yes, HHC is a professional practice which must be licensed by the country's Health Authority (HA). Until otherwise incorporated, HHC is a private pay and for-profit entity duly qualified to enter into short term and long term home health care contracts with individuals, hospitals, private clinics, private practices, government institutions or agencies, major employers and foreign mission personnel based in the country. The HA is the regulatory authority responsible for monitoring and evaluating the quality of health care services provided by HHC at all times.

WHO PAYS FOR HHC SERVICES? 

Home health services can be purchased privately by individuals; by private health insurance companies offering coverage for home health services; or by hospitals, clinics, government institutions or agencies, and other groups such as major employers. In all cases, the provision of services and supplies by HHC nurses and therapists is contingent on the patients’ being under a physician's plan of care. Government agencies and private sector employers in the AGCC countries are most likely to pay for its citizens home health services if the patient’s physician certifies that the patient:

• is homebound i.e. confined to home except for infrequent or short absences for medical care, and

• requires one or more of the following services
• physical therapy
• speech therapy
• skilled nursing
• non-skilled nursing
