Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Matt, contact the local to mom medicaid office, you'll find the number under Department of Health and Human Services for your county, they will help you figure out if she qualifies for medicaid.
Medicaid has many different facets of assistance, ask whomever you speak with what they are, ie supplemental health insurance, in home care services, long term care, etc. and look into what needs to be done for her to qualify for different assistance as things change for her needs.
She will need more help as time passes, so you want to avoid doing anything that would cause her to be denied down the road for any care available.
Your County Office of Aging can help you with resources within your County.
Medicaid is by income. Like Medicaid Longterm care, there are income requirements she has to meet. She can stay in her home but have no assets over 2k, in my State. Office of Aging may be able to explain this to you or you make an appt with a Medicaid caseworker to see if Mom fits the criteria.
Brandee, the paratransit services are run by the department of transportation.
They send an application, determine eligibility and determine your cost, if there is one. Where I live, Tucson, Arizona, once you qualify for paratransit services you also, can get discounted taxi vouchers. You have to ask about those though, not advertised.
I think you need to decide whether or not she qualified for Medicaid. That means researching Medicaid for your State and getting both the qualifications and the asset limits straight for yourself. Before you sit down to call them gather a good idea of her monthly assets and assets she holds, and of her diagnosis.
There is also some Medicare, dependent on whether she is on supplemental advantage of non-advantage programs. So call her supplemental insurance.
All state programs differ, so this will be your own research for her if you are POA.
Call 211 and they will help you with all the resources available in your moms area. You can also call your local Senior Services and Area Agency on Aging.
