Medicaid Home and Community Based Services Waivers, and Programs For Seniors, Listed By State
It can be a rather daunting task trying to find out if you, or an elderly loved one are eligible for any Home and Community Based Services Programs, waivers.
So, I have put together a list of all the available Medicaid and state funded Home and Community Base Services offered by each state, and linked to the appropriate website.
I have added other State Medicaid Programs which also fund assistance to the elderly, so as they may to continue to live in their own homes.
The list includes –
- Home and Community Based Services Programs and Waivers
- Personal Assistance Programs
- Personal Care Programs
- PACE Programs – Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly
- Money Follows The Person Programs
Look for your state in the list below, and you will see the agency, or department administering the program, the program title, and in the column on the right, the links to the programs on the state website running the programs or services.
