Ohio licensing notes

What Ohio regulators expect

Regulator: Ohio Department of Health (ODH).

Home health agencies in Ohio are licensed by ODH under ORC 3740 (effective 2024); non-medical home care providers serving Medicaid waiver clients certify through ODA/DODD. Most licenses require proof of General Liability and a skilled nursing or dishonesty bond.

Ohio workers' compensation is written only by the Ohio BWC — we guide you through the state fund and quote everything else.

Ohio home-care market: Ohio has 1,000+ licensed home health agencies and the fastest-growing DODD waiver provider base in the Midwest — Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati lead demand. Licensed in Ohio and four neighboring states — and home health General Liability & Professional Liability are available to agencies in all 50 states.

Ohio home care liability insurance — questions owners ask

Do I need liability insurance to run a home care agency in Ohio?

Yes, once you are certified to serve Ohio Department of Aging (ODA) programs. Ohio Admin. Code 173-39-02 requires ODA-certified providers to carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in commercial liability insurance, and the coverage has to include individuals' losses due to theft or property damage. Providers also keep a Medicaid provider agreement and a provider agreement with ODA's designee in active status. Text us at 814-718-0060 or start at noahia.com/quote.

What's the difference between general liability and professional liability in Ohio?

General liability responds to third-party injuries and property damage — a visitor falls in your office, or a caregiver damages a client's property. Professional liability responds to claims about the care itself, like an allegation that a visit was missed or performed incorrectly. Ohio's ODA certification rule accepts commercial liability with theft coverage built in; many agencies carry both policies because they answer different claims. Text us at 814-718-0060 or start at noahia.com/quote.

Does Ohio require anything else before my agency can take clients?

Alongside liability coverage, Ohio agencies typically need workers' compensation through Ohio BWC once caregivers are hired, and any bond tied to their license or enrollment — new skilled home health agencies, for example, file a $50,000 surety bond with their Ohio Department of Health license application under Ohio Revised Code 3740.03. Which pieces apply depends on your services and programs. Text us at 814-718-0060 or start at noahia.com/quote.
