No....he is just making sure his employee is able to return to duty and ensure that you are going to represent his company well. That is what he is legally responsible for.
Take care of yourself!

If the place where you work is a major organisation, they will have a special procedure to follow in the case of long-term sickness.
It's probably part of the policy that your direct line manager needs to be there at all meetings regarding the future of your employment. So you can't read anything in to it.
The comment "it was nice seeing you again" is simply a pleasant and cordial thing to say to someone as you're saying goodbye - I don't think you can read anything into that either.
Are you hoping that your boss fancies you?

You are reading FAR too much into this. Where I work ,and probably in most other places, a long term sick home visit would invariably be carried out by your manager and a HR representative, on the basis that they know you best and you are THEIR responsibility.As a male manager, it would almost certainly be a prerequisite that a home visit to a female employee is accompanied by a person of the same sex to avoid any accusations of impropriety (it happens!).
Unless your manager has ever acted in a way which makes you suspect he has designs on you, I think you're over-thinking the situation.He wants to get you back to work, nothing more
