Hi everyone,

I am about to have brain surgery and was told by my doctor that I may need 24 hour assistance. My insurance company covers any home health care visits (60 total). My mother is an RN and works for a company in a different state than me. I was thinking about going and staying with my parents while I heal but I was wondering if it is illegal to hire my mother through the agency. The agency is in network with my insurance (BC/BS PPO) even though it's in a different state. It's a group insurance plan through my husband's work. I don't want to do anything illegal but I don't see how it would be a problem. She works for a home health care company and she has been an RN for 20 years. I trust her. Does anyone know the rules on something like that?

Thanks!
