What is Medicaid Home Care Coverage?
Medicaid is a joint federal and state health insurance program that helps low-income individuals cover the cost of health care, including home care services. In Pennsylvania, Medicaid may cover personal care, companionship services, and assistance with daily activities provided by a licensed home care agency like CareLuxe Solutions.
Eligibility is based on income, age, disability status, and medical need. Many Pittsburgh-area residents who need home care assistance qualify without realizing it.
Medicaid may cover:
- Personal care such as bathing, dressing, and grooming
- Companionship and social engagement
- Meal preparation and planning
- Light housekeeping and errands
- Respite care for family caregivers
- Assistance with activities of daily living
What is the OLTL Waiver Program?
Pennsylvania Office of Long-Term Living offers home and community-based waiver programs that help individuals receive care at home instead of a nursing facility.
OBRA Waiver
Supports adults ages 18-59 with physical disabilities who need nursing facility-level care but prefer to live in the community.
Independence Waiver
Designed for individuals who need nursing-level care and can be safely supported in their own home.
Your family can get paid to care for you.
Through Pennsylvania Medicaid, CareLuxe Solutions clients can choose a trusted family member as their caregiver. That family member joins CareLuxe Solutions as an official caregiver and gets paid through your Medicaid benefits.
Most of our clients and caregivers are family. You get care from someone who already knows and loves you, and they receive a paycheck at no cost to your family.
