Does Medicare cover companion care?
No. Medicare does not cover companion care services because they are non-medical in nature. Those with Medicare will need to pay out of pocket or through private insurance. It's recommended to check with your insurance provider to determine what types of services are covered.
How does Aviva ensure medication reminders are done correctly?
Trained care professionals provide medication reminders to ensure pills are taken at proper times. This addresses the common issue that physicians cannot adequately monitor whether patients are taking medications correctly, and minimizes the chance of errors that could lead to adverse reactions or hospitalization.
