Staff-assisted home hemodialysis
A nurse comes to your home and does your dialysis for you
A licensed and background-checked dialysis nurse comes to your house in Houston and performs your hemodialysis for you. You do not place your own needles. You do not run the machine. No family member has to be trained to help.
In network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and UnitedHealthcare.
This is not the home dialysis you have heard about
Most home hemodialysis programs train you, or a family member, to run the treatment yourselves. That means classes, practice, and placing your own needles.
Staff-assisted home hemodialysis is different. Our nurse does the work at every visit, from setup to cleanup. You rest in your own home while the treatment happens.
What dialysis at home looks like with us
-
The nurse does the treatment
A licensed dialysis nurse places the needles, runs the machine, monitors the whole treatment, and cleans up afterward.
-
Nothing for you to learn
There is no training program and no classes. No family member has to become your care partner.
-
In your own home
No traveling to a dialysis center several times a week. The treatment comes to you.
Coverage at a glance
Commercial insurance does cover staff-assisted home hemodialysis. That includes commercial insurance you hold on your own, such as a plan through an employer or the marketplace. It also includes commercial insurance you hold alongside Medicare or a Medicare Advantage plan as a secondary policy. We are in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and UnitedHealthcare.
By law, Original Medicare does not cover staff-assisted home hemodialysis. Medicare Advantage plans do not cover it either, because they follow Medicare's payment rules. However, if you have Medicare plus a commercial secondary policy (BCBS or UnitedHealthcare), you may qualify for our service.
Have Medicare with a Blue Cross Blue Shield or UnitedHealthcare secondary plan? You likely qualify. Call 346-388-0656 and we verify your coverage.
