Key drivers

  • Demographic demand keeps home-health payrolls on an upward trend
  • Recent three-month gains were strong before a softer June print
  • July seasonal-adjusted first print has often shown positive growth in this industry
  • Policy and reimbursement uncertainty could slow hiring but no clear July break is visible in the public series
