Fortune Business Insights™ presents this information in its report titled, “U.S. Home Healthcare Services Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Physician Care, Nursing Care, Physical, Occupational & Speech Therapy, Medical Social Services, and Others), By Payor (Public Health Insurance and Private Health Insurance/Out of Pocket), and Country Forecast, 2024-2032”.  

Home healthcare services are offered to patients in the comfort of an individual’s residence. These services are widely preferred for patients who are homebound and old as they offer safety and well-being by confirming that geriatric patients get appropriate treatment by living close to their family members. An increase in initiatives by top participants to offer portable devices with advanced technologies suitable for home health settings is fostering market development. The integration of telecommunication in the home healthcare industry is providing growth opportunities in the market. The launch of new reimbursement codes covering telehealth in home healthcare solutions is driving the demand for home healthcare services.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental effect on the market owing to decreased demand for home healthcare services due to increased concerns about the COVID-19 infection among patients.

Amedisys Acquired Contessa Health to Boost Its Capacities in In-home Healthcare Services

In June 2021, Amedisys acquired a hospital-at-home and skilled nursing facility leader, Contessa Health, to increase its capacities in in-home healthcare services. This includes the addition of a higher-acuity hospital and trained nursing facility services at home, an innovative analytics platform, and network management.

Rising Prevalence of Chronic Conditions in the Geriatric Population to Fuel Market Growth

There is a sharp increase in the old-age population in the U.S., which is more susceptible to chronic diseases, including diabetes, dementia, cardiac disorders, and others. Increased demand for healthcare services at home is attributed to the surging need for daily assistance and continuous monitoring among the geriatric population in the country. As per the 2023 Senior Report published by the United Health Foundation, around 16.8% of the U.S. population, or USD 55.8 million Americans, were aged 65 years old and above.

Home healthcare offers different benefits for older adults over hospitals and nursing facilities, including quality treatment at home, low cost, reduced risk of infections, and others. As per the 2023 article by the National Council on Aging, around 95.0% of adults aged 60 years or older have at least one chronic disorder, while 80.0% have two or more. All these factors are expected to fuel the U.S. home healthcare services market growth in the coming years.

On the other hand, the nature of fraud differs, although most frauds include home health agencies billing for services that are not medically necessary or not provided. This is hampering the demand for home healthcare services.

The segment growth is driven by the increasing adoption of skilled nursing care services at home for people aged above 65 years. In August 2022, Mount Sinai Health System and Contessa, an Amedisys company, extended their collaboration by integrating Mount Sinai South Nassau’s home health agency. The home health agency will be known as Mount Sinai at Home and provide home health services, such as Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF at home), palliative care, and others.
