FAQs About Home and Community Based Services

How do I know if I qualify for Home and Community Based Services?
Eligibility depends on both medical and financial criteria. We assist individuals in understanding and navigating the requirements set by the state’s Medicaid program, including assessments and documentation.
What types of support can be provided through HCBS?
Home and Community Based Services typically include assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing, grooming, meal preparation, and mobility support. We help tailor these services based on each person’s unique needs.
Are these services only available to seniors?
No, HCBS programs also support individuals of various ages who have disabilities or health conditions that require long-term care. We work with people across different age groups and health situations.
Can I still receive care at home if I would normally need to be in a facility?
Yes, that’s the purpose of HCBS. These programs are designed to offer at-home alternatives to institutional care, allowing individuals to remain in a familiar environment while still receiving essential support. We help make that possible with qualified assistance and guidance.
How is care coordinated once someone is approved for the program?
Once eligibility is confirmed, a personalized care plan is created. We collaborate with case managers, families, and caregivers to ensure the care aligns with daily needs, goals, and preferences.
What are some misconceptions about HCBS that I should be aware of?
One common misconception is that HCBS is only for individuals with severe disabilities. In reality, many people with moderate support needs also qualify. We help clarify these details to avoid confusion and delays in receiving care.
What should I expect during the initial HCBS process?
The process usually involves an assessment, paperwork, and coordination with state agencies. We walk families through each step, making sure they understand timelines, responsibilities, and available options under the waiver.
