15 home health agencies ranked by net patient revenue
Patients who require skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy may receive short-term rehabilitation from home health care agencies directly in their home.
In addition to rehabilitation and nursing care, home health patients may also receive other home health aide services such patient care education, wound care, pain management, injections, medication management, blood pressure and heart rate monitoring, and regular medical assessments.
Home health organizations are a critical aspect of many patients’ care journeys. Not only do they allow patients to recover in the comfort of their own home, but they can reduce the cost burden of an inpatient stay in a rehabilitation facility or skilled nursing facility and lower the risk of acquiring a healthcare-associated infection (HAI).
Definitive Healthcare tracks more than 17,300 active home health agencies. From this data, we’ve compiled a list of the top 15 organizations by net patient revenue (NPR) for 2024, the most recent full year of data available.

Which home health agencies have the highest net patient revenue?
Maxim Healthcare is the home health agency with the highest net patient revenue at $1.66 billion. Based in Columbus, Maryland, this organization provides home health services in over 40 states nationwide.
Second on the list is CenterWell Home Health (formerly known as Kindred at Home), an Atlanta-based home health agency corporation with $1.49 billion in NPR.
Amedisys, Inc., based out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rounds out the top three with $1.46 billion in NPR. Amedisys is one of the largest homecare providers and has a presence in over 35 states.
What home health care is covered by Medicare?
If patients have Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B, they may be eligible for services such as a home health nurse, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, medical social services, home health aide care, injectable osteoporosis drugs for women, durable medical equipment, and medical supplies for use at home.
For Medicare patients to be eligible, they must be homebound, and a physician must be directing their care as well as developing, regularly reviewing, and certifying the care plan.
How do home health care agencies differ from other at-home care options?
Unlike other at-home care such as hospice, home health care does not provide 24-hour care to patients. Generally, Medicare will cover 28-35 hours of home health care services per week for a 60-day period.
After the 60-day “episode of care,” the care can be recertified an unlimited number of times if care is still indicated, and the patient is still demonstrating progress. Additionally, some patients living with chronic conditions can also receive home health coverage for an extended period of time.
