What the home health bond actually covers
Under 42 CFR 441.16, every home health agency that participates in (or seeks to participate in) Medicaid must obtain a surety bond and furnish a copy to the Medicaid agency — in Michigan, the Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). The bond names the agency as principal, MDHHS as obligee, and the surety company as surety.
The bond guarantees that, on written demand by MDHHS, the surety will timely pay up to the bond amount for uncollected Medicaid overpayments determined during the term of the bond. The federal minimum is $50,000 per home health agency; MDHHS can require a higher amount based on your billing volume or overpayment history.
A home health agency operated by a federal, state, local, or tribal government may be exempt if it has had no uncollected overpayments in the prior five years. Whatever amount your enrollment requires, we price the bond at 2% of the bond amount, with a quick soft credit check that never affects your score — and if the surety pays a demand, you repay the surety.
