Home care reimbursements ...

Margins are tight. Lost dollars hurt.

Cost pressures on home care and hospice are only going up, including wages, benefits, and compliance, as noted in the VA General Assembly update.

In this environment, every single dollar of reimbursement has to land where it belongs.

VAHC has helped members recover and protect hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years through audit support, billing guidance, and payer problem-solving. This is not the time to go it alone.

Mid-session, West Virginia lawmakers are already moving policies that matter for home care.

The House has passed HB 5096, exempting personal care and IDD services from certificate of need which lowers barriers to expand HCBS capacity.

Broader CON repeal remains unresolved.

The Senate Health & Human Resources Committee advanced the Make West Virginia Healthy Act of 2026 and a new Caregiver Tax Credit Act, both aiming to strengthen nutrition, behavioral health, and caregiver support.

These decisions will shape how easily agencies can grow and how well families can access care at home.

This Employee Appreciation Day, we celebrate the caregivers who make aging in place possible.

Nearly 1 in 4 Americans is a family caregiver, providing an estimated $470 billion in unpaid care each year, and paid caregivers multiply that impact in the home every day

To every home care worker : your work changes outcomes, and lives. You are unique individuals whose contributions are far reaching.

VA General Assembly Implications

02/26/2026

Today is “Write a Letter to an Elder Day”...a perfect moment to invest in the cognitive health that keeps aging in place possible.

Handwritten notes, stories, and photos stimulate memory, spark joy, and help reduce isolation for older adults living at home. Pair a simple letter with a phone call or visit, and you’re not just brightening a day,
you’re supporting brain health, emotional well-being, and the connections that make home care work.
We’re all in this together!

🌪️ A new Virginia General Assembly session is underway, and bills are moving fast.

Even a single change to Medicaid, licensing, wage rules, or audits can dramatically impact home care reimbursement and access.

This is exactly why VAHC is, literally in the room, tracking language, testifying, and working to shape outcomes before they spiral.

Your voice (stories, data) helps us make the case that home care is critical to families and communities. ,

02/12/2026

In its first full week of the 2026 session, the West Virginia House of Delegates has already passed seven bills, with 798 bills introduced and more on the way.

Much of the early focus is on jobs and economic development programs like the STAND apprenticeship initiative and expanded site development grants to “put West Virginians to work in good-paying jobs.”

For home care and hospice, these workforce and infrastructure debates matter: stronger local economies, better training pathways, and targeted incentives can directly shape your ability to recruit, retain, and support caregivers.

Policy, reimbursement, or Medicaid/Medicare changes can alter funding with a single signature. (Capstone Partners 2025 report)

Medicaid finances nearly 70% of home- and community-based services, meaning any movement in state or federal budgets directly hits home care stability.

A smart strategy for 2026:

1) stay close to policy

2) diversify payers where possible

3) build advocacy into your business plan

More than 8 bills.

One session.

A critical time.

02/06/2026

More bills that need attention!

02/03/2026

After advocating in person for a bill to pause new home care approvals until current agencies where surveyed, the bill was carried over to the next session.

This bill would have provided an opportunity for VA to proactively ensure the agencies in our states were doing everything right.

As Dr Oz noted in this video, home and hospice care are a big focus of CMS fraud. And VA was just added to the list.

We are disappointed at this outcome of the bill (Bill 241). We had good meetings on this topic, but we need more support to move the needle.
Contact our Executive Director on how to get involved, or if you want to get ahead of upcoming inspections.
