Partners In Home Care

What Partners In Home Care does

Partners In Home Care (PIHC) is a nonprofit healthcare services organization founded in 1987 and headquartered in Missoula, Montana. It provides an integrated continuum of in-home and outpatient services across six Western Montana counties (Missoula, Ravalli, Lake, Sanders, Mineral, and Granite), serving patients of all ages who need medical care, therapy, or support at home, patients with chronic or serious illness, and individuals at end of life. The organization is structured as a registered Montana nonprofit with no parent company or institutional investor, and operates alongside affiliated entity Partners Hope Foundation, which sustains capital assets such as the Hope Hospice Center.

The service portfolio spans eight core lines: Home Health (skilled nursing, physical/occupational/speech therapy, medical social work, certified nursing assistants), Hospice (interdisciplinary end-of-life care at home and at the inpatient facility), Palliative Care (outpatient symptom management and care navigation for serious illness), Infusion Services (outpatient IV antibiotics, biologics, hydration therapy, IVIG, specialty infusions), Home Medical Equipment (CPAP/BiPAP devices, enteral nutrition, oxygen therapy, mobility aids, hospital beds, incontinence supplies), Sleep Therapy (diagnostic and treatment services for obstructive sleep apnea), Home & Community Based Services (Medicaid-funded case management and personal-care support for elderly and disabled clients), and Bereavement Services (grief counseling, support groups, memorial events). Clinical care is delivered through a combination of field staff visiting patients in their homes and several clinics co-located at the Palmer Street headquarters and at satellite sites in Hamilton and at the dedicated Hope Hospice Center.

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service healthcare delivery reimbursed by Medicare, Medicaid, and most major insurance plans, supplemented by a Financial Assistance Program for income-eligible patients, community donations, and foundation support (via Partners Hope Foundation). The go-to-market model is referral-driven: physicians, hospitals, family members, and self-referrals send patients in via fax-based referral forms, after which PIHC coordinates care across the relevant service lines. The organization holds ACHC accreditation and CAPC designation, and operates 24/7 including weekends and holidays.
