In-Home Health-Related Care (IHHRC) Overview - Iowa

The purpose of in-home health-related care is to provide personal services to people in their own homes when physical or mental problems prevent them from independent self-care. The program strives to prevent or reduce time in institutional care by helping a person stay at home as long as possible.

People eligible for in-home health-related care may be eligible for Medicaid. Although eligibility for IHHRC may never be effective earlier than the application date, recipients may be eligible for retroactive Medicaid.

To be eligible for retroactive Medicaid coverage using the IHHRC coverage group, the applicant must have been receiving personal services recommended by a physician and supervised by a registered nurse, as well as having met all other eligibility requirements during the retroactive period. Other applicable Medicaid coverage groups will be examined if the applicant does not meet eligibility using the IHHRC coverage group.
