AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would add preventive home visits as a service covered by Medicare. During a visit, a qualified professional or team would assess a person's home, identify health risks, and give referrals for things like home changes, fall prevention, mobility, or nutrition. Medicare would cover one visit no more than once every 2 years, and visits could be done in person, remotely, or both. Medicare would pay 100 percent of a set bundled payment amount (or the actual charge, if lower), starting with services on or after January 1, 2027.
