Why an In-Home Health Visit Matters

Taking care of your health is easier when you feel supported. That’s why your health insurance plan works with Signify Health to offer In-Home Health Evaluations (IHEs) - a health check that happens right in your home at no extra cost. You don’t have to travel or wait in a clinic. You can stay where you feel safe and relaxed. A licensed physician, physician assistant or nurse practitioner will come to you, listen to your concerns, and help you understand your health. This visit does not replace your regular doctor visit; it’s an extra way to support your care and help keep you feeling your best.

What is an In-Home Health Evaluation (IHE)?
An IHE is a visit by a licensed clinician. It’s not meant to replace visits with your regular doctor, it’s a way to check in, see how you're doing, and help you stay on track with your health. You can ask questions and the clinician may perform some preventive health screens to identify or monitor health conditions such as chronic kidney disease,  diabetes or colorectal cancer.

How This Visit Helps You

Time just for you.
You get one-on-one time with a health care professional who listens and answers your questions.

Find out what you need.
The clinician can help spot health issues early and talk with you about any help you may need, like food, medicine, or help with things like getting a wheelchair or making sure you’re using your blood pressure cuff the right way.

Help even if you don’t have a regular doctor.
If you don’t have a primary care provider, we’ll help you find one close to home who is in your health care provider network. 

Clearer path, better care.
The goal is simple: to make your health care easier to understand and easier to make progress. We follow up with your regular doctor, if you have one, to make sure everyone is in the loop about your care.

Why trust Signify Health?
Signify Health partners with your health insurance plan to send licensed physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners who are passionate about what they do, to your door. The team’s job is to review your health, explain what they find, listen to your needs, and recommend next steps—all while delivering an easier, more personalized health care experience.

Another bonus!
After your IHE, someone from Signify Health may call and offer extra support through something called Care Coordination Pathways (CCP). This means a care team member may call you to check in, help you find doctors or services, or remind you about follow-up care. It’s one more way to help you stay healthy without the stress of doing it alone.

Health care can feel confusing and even complicated, but you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. We’re here to make things simpler and support you however we can. After all, what is more important than your health?
