Eligibility Checklist

How to Qualify for Medicaid In-Home Care

In Michigan, you or your loved one can receive top-tier, certified personal care assistance funded entirely by your Medicaid insurance.

  • Active Medicaid Card

    Must be currently enrolled in Michigan Medicaid. (Medicare alone does not cover daily non-medical home health care).

  • Physical/Medical Necessity

    Requires daily support with basic physical activities such as bathing, dressing, walking, eating, or transferring safely.

  • The MI Choice Waiver Option

    Designed to help seniors stay safely at home rather than entering a costly nursing facility. We handle the placement & care setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to help you navigate home help programs easily

Medicare generally only pays for short-term, medically necessary skilled nursing visits after a hospital discharge. Conversely, Michigan Home Health Care Medicaid plans cover long-term, non-medical support at home—including help with grooming, bathing, light housework, and meal preparation.

To start a DHS Home Help Application, you must contact your local Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) caseworker. Our Medicaid intake specialists are fully equipped to guide you through this process step-by-step for free, ensuring you submit the correct paperwork to get approved quickly.

The MI Choice Waiver program is a special Michigan Medicaid initiative designed for nursing-home-eligible seniors who prefer to live in the comfort of their own homes. It connects you with specialized home help agencies like ours to cover daily living support fully.

Yes! Under the Michigan Medicaid rules, certain eligible family members (excluding spouses or legal guardians of children under 18) can be hired and paid directly as caregivers to take care of you. We are one of Michigan's top agencies that manage family care wages seamlessly.
