If you want to start a home care business in Michigan, it is important that you understand the fine line between what is Medical and Non-Medical Home Care
If you want to start a non-medical home care business in Michigan, as opposed to a skilled medical home care business, you will need to consider a number of things such as inherent care provider risk, accreditation, billing, payors, hiring skilled staff vs. non-skilled staff, to name a few.
