For Referring Partners
Do you know a senior who has recently experienced an increase in hospital visits or is struggling to maintain independence at home and may benefit from all-inclusive services from Mercy LIFE of Alabama? We look forward to partnering with you to care for the elders in the community we serve, together.
By dually referring patients to both home health and LIFE, you're not just providing care – you're guaranteeing continuity. Our approach fosters holistic wellness, addressing medical needs while enriching lives through comprehensive services tailored to each individual's unique requirements. Trust us to be your bridge to uninterrupted care, ensuring your patients receive the support they deserve at every stage of their healthcare journey.
The LIFE program is an all-inclusive program that combines medical and long-term care services in a community setting for its participants (also known as members).
Seniors qualify for LIFE services if:
- They are age 55 or older
- They live in one of the service area zip codes
- They have been certified by the state as eligible for nursing home care
- They are able to live safely in a community setting with services provided by Mercy LIFE of Alabama
Mercy LIFE of Alabama services are typically free to seniors who qualify for Medicare and Medicaid or Medicaid only. Participants who do not qualify for Medicaid, but have Medicare, will be charged a monthly fee.
