About Lucent Health Group

Lucent Health Group is a Medicare-certified home health agency serving Plano, TX and has been Medicare certified since 2006. Services offered in the home include skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and medical social services. The agency is privately owned.

Medicare has not yet published a quality of patient care star rating for this agency, usually because it has too few recent patients for a reliable score.

Home health is short-term, doctor-ordered clinical care at home, typically after a hospital stay or during recovery, and Medicare covers it in full when the patient qualifies. Families who need ongoing help with daily living, such as bathing, meals and companionship, should also compare non-medical home care agencies nearby.
