In-Home Health Assessments: Info for Health Plan Members

For Your Health, in the Comfort of Your Home

Your health plan has you covered. Focus Care’s in-home health assessments (IHAs) give your health plan a comprehensive overview of your health, to make sure you can access the care you need for chronic or emerging conditions. Our licensed nurse practitioners visit you in the comfort of your home. They ask questions, observe, listen, and do (or prescribe) diagnostic tests to close care gaps and help you develop a plan to optimize your healthcare. This is a complimentary service designed to benefit you.

How In-Home Assessments Benefit You

Focus Care’s in-home health assessments (IHAs) help your health plan gain insights into your daily life, environment, restrictions, and needs. Our certified health and wellness appraisal tool guides nurse practitioners through each visit to ensure thorough reporting, without any gaps. This proven approach helps us identify health risks early, personalize care plans, and provide guidance to support better health outcomes.
