Paid Caregiver Questions

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

  • We currently serve the entire state of Indiana. To determine eligibility for the Age & Disabled Waiver, see below:

    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.

    Assets encompass the consumer's available resources, such as funds in bank accounts.

    For unmarried consumers, eligibility is established if their monthly income falls below $1,215, and their assets amount to less than $2,000. Married consumers have slightly higher thresholds. 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.

  • If you have Medicaid, training and support is covered by Paid.care and is at no cost to you or your loved one. Medicaid Waiver Programs 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.

    In Indiana, anyone with Medicaid or eligible for a Medicaid Waiver (that could be you) is eligible to get paid.

  • In Indiana, we pay family caregivers that are a part of the Attendant Care Program $17 per hour on top of a $500 sign on bonus broken up over your first year as a caregiver β€” ensuring financial stability and advocating for competitive wages.
