At BAYADA, we are committed to easing the process of determining eligibility and starting services, including navigating insurances and other benefits.
There are four considerations in confirming your eligibility for in-home nursing services:
Referral: Your doctor must make a referral confirming the necessity for complex clinical care that cannot be safely managed by untrained caregivers alone.
Location: We must ensure that you reside within a geographic area that BAYADA serves.
Insurance: We will check your insurance coverage to ensure payer authorization and approvals (Medicaid, Medicare, private coverage, or programs that fund private duty nursing).
Assessment: Our clinical team will conduct an initial assessment to ensure that your medical, developmental, and safety needs are within the scope of services BAYADA provides.
BAYADA smooths the process of getting nursing care for you or your loved one.

Complete intake and insurance authorization. BAYADA works side-by-side with families to handle insurance approvals and paperwork, aiming to ease worries and speed up start of care.
Once services are approved, a BAYADA nurse manager assesses your needs, goals, and home situation to create a nursing care plan and schedule. A dedicated nurse manager will assemble and onboard a care team, matching experienced nurses to your unique needs and preferences.
Service begins-with ongoing support. Nursing shifts are scheduled for reliability and continuity by a dedicated client services manager. Your nurse manager will remain in contact, adjusting care plans as needed.
