Who needs care
The patient’s name, age range, and who is making the request.
In-home medical visits
Medical attention in a more familiar setting.
An in-home visit may make care easier to access for some patients. AthenaCare confirms clinical appropriateness, location, eligibility, and availability before scheduling.
What it means
A medical visit designed around the patient's circumstances.
An in-home medical visit takes place at the patient's residence rather than a traditional medical office.
The exact scope of a visit depends on the patient's needs and the services AthenaCare confirms. Home visits are not a substitute for emergency care and are not guaranteed for every request.
A good first conversation
Information that helps the team review your request.
Where care is requested
The city or ZIP code where a visit would take place.
What support is needed
A brief, non-sensitive explanation of the request and preferred timing.
Home visits are not for emergencies.
If symptoms may be serious, life-threatening, or require immediate attention, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
