FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                 IN HOME HEALTH, INC. ANNOUNCES 
         FINAL PRORATION FACTOR OF 63.42% IN SELF-TENDER


   MINNETONKA, MN, October 30, 1995 -- In Home Health, Inc.
(NASDAQ symbol IHHI), a leading provider of home health care

MEDICARE PAYMENT DISPUTES

In Home Health also announced that a status conference was held
on October 24, 1995 by the federal judge handling two lawsuits
brought by the Company against the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) concerning payment for services the Company
has provided to Medicare beneficiaries.  The two lawsuits,
brought by the Company in U.S. District Court in 1994, allege
that HHS has unjustly withheld approximately $8.8 million in
payments that are owed to In Home Health for services it provided
to Medicare beneficiaries from 1988 to 1994.  At the status
conference, the Court was advised by the attorneys for HHS that
decisions by the HHS Provider Reimbursement Review Board (PRRB)
should be expected by the end of November 1995 and the end of
January 1996, respectively.  The judge's order, which was
received on October 26th, states that in view of those dates, the
court hearings on the Company's motions for judicial relief would
be deferred and that written status reports must be filed with
the court on December 15, 1995.  At that time the court will
determine whether to hear the motions or further defer the
hearings.

With annual revenues of approximately $130 million, In Home
Health specializes in providing quality comprehensive health care
services to clients of all ages in their own homes.  In Home
Health provides a variety of services which include skilled
nursing, infusion therapy, hospice, rehabilitation and personal
care.  Headquartered in Minneapolis, In Home Health provides
