Best Practices for Insurance Companies Regarding Caregiver Certification
What are the best practices for insurance companies regarding caregiver certification? As the national certifying organization for caregivers, the American Caregiver Association certifies caregivers for a variety of reasons. One of the primary reasons the ACA certifies is for insurance, both private insurance and long-term care insurance.
When a policy is written by an insurance company for a client that has in-home caregiver services covered in their insurance policy, the American Caregiver Association recommends that the insurance company include all ACA contact information in the policy. Doing so, allows for a smooth transition from execution of the policy to the acquisition of caregiver certification with the American Caregiver Association by the client’s caregiver.
The following information should be included in the policy by insurance companies for a client that is seeking compensation for their caregiver through the client’s insurance policy.
To Obtain Caregiver Certification Please Visit:
