Paid.care provides payment, professional training, coaching, emotional, and financial support for families caring for loved one.

In Illinois, those who live in the home of a loved one on Medicaid and the Community Care Program qualifies. This includes children, and anyone except for spouses and power of attorneys.

Clinical Eligibility:

To determine if you require home care, it's essential to assess your specific needs. While the technical aspects of clinical eligibility can be intricate, we strongly advise you to self-assess your need for home care before proceeding with an application.

Financial Eligibility:

Financial eligibility is categorized into two primary components: income and assets.

Income refers to regular earnings, such as Social Security or a Pension.

Total liquid cash threshold is $17,500 meaning you cannot have more than $17,500 in your ban account to qualify for the Community Care Program.

It's worth noting that individuals with incomes exceeding these limits may still qualify for services. So, don't be disheartened if you don't meet these specific criteria.

Determining financial eligibility can be a complex process, and we haven't detailed every possible scenario. However, it's important to recognize that individuals who assume they are financially ineligible may be doing themselves a disservice. In many instances, applying for assessment can be worthwhile, as you may discover that you do indeed qualify. At the very least, it will provide valuable insights into your options. Furthermore, some individuals may find it beneficial to seek professional guidance to explore their eligibility possibilities.

At Paid.care, we also require our primary caregivers to pass a background check and complete training/coaching to help with activities of daily living to provide the highest level of care.

If you have Medicaid, training and support is covered by Paid.care and is at no cost to you or your loved one. Select Medicare and Mediaid plans cover the cost of Paid.care training and support for their members. Our program allows families to live a healthy and happy life in their own homes.
