Filter by star rating, city, and ownership type.
Northern Virginia (Fairfax, Arlington, Prince William, Loudoun counties) has the highest concentration of agencies, benefiting from the large and affluent population in the D.C. metro corridor. Richmond and Hampton Roads (Norfolk, Virginia Beach) are secondary markets. Southwest Virginia has very limited coverage, with some rural counties relying on a single agency or receiving coverage from agencies based in Roanoke or Bristol.
Virginia's star rating distribution is slightly above average nationally. Northern Virginia agencies compete for referrals in a high-density market and face strong quality pressure. Richmond-area agencies affiliated with VCU Health and Bon Secours Health System tend to perform well. Rural Southwest Virginia agencies may have limited or no published star ratings due to small patient volumes.
Virginia home health agencies must be licensed by the Virginia Department of Health (VDH). Virginia does not currently have a Certificate of Need requirement for home health agencies. VDH licensing surveys occur independently of CMS inspections.
