Yes, Medicare Part B covers in-home physical and occupational therapy when ordered by a doctor and provided by a Medicare-certified home health agency. You must be homebound, meaning leaving home requires considerable effort. There is no limit on the number of covered visits as long as they are medically necessary.
Occupational therapists assess your home for fall hazards and recommend modifications like grab bars, better lighting, and removing tripping risks. They also teach safe movement techniques, recommend assistive devices, and design exercise programs to improve balance and strength — reducing fall risk by up to 40%.
