Definitions: how Idaho names home care
- State license term
- Home Health Agency
- Non-medical licensing
- No state license for non-medical home care was found.
- License types
- Home Health Agency (Medicare-certified) (counted)
- Personal Assistance Agency (Medicaid personal care / A&D waiver provider) (counted)Term seen in secondary sources; Medicaid provider enrollment rather than state licensure. Not verified on an official page during research.
- Notes
- No official DHW page found that licenses private-pay non-medical home care; secondary sources (vitablehealth.com, homecareatlas.com) state non-medical home care is not licensed in Idaho. Since July 1, 2025 even Medicare-certified HHAs no longer hold a state license, so there is effectively no state home care licensure stream to monitor.
Terminology varies by state. HomeCareIntent uses each state's own term on its pages and maps it to a common category. Glossary
