Services That May Be Covered
How the Medicaid Process Works
1
Initial Referral
A physician, family member, case manager, or individual submits care requests to the agency.
2
Review & Intake
Our intake team reviews the information and contacts the family to discuss service specific needs.
3
Authorization Coordination
We coordinate with the case manager or care coordinator to confirm program and service units.
4
Caregiver Matching
Based on authorization and staffing, we match a compassionate caregiver to the client’s schedule.
5
Authorized Resumption
Services officially start once all state authorizations, staffing, and documentation are confirmed.
Submitting a referral does not guarantee eligibility, authorization, staffing, or an immediate service start.
Frequently Asked Payment Questions
How do I know if I qualify for a Medicaid waiver?
Eligibility is determined by the State of Indiana. We can help you identify the right state resources to begin the assessment process.
Do I need a doctor's referral for private-pay care?
While a physician’s input is helpful, non-medical private-pay services can be requested directly through a consultation with our agency.
Are the rates the same for all services?
Medicaid rates are set by the state, while private-pay rates vary based on the level and frequency of support requested.
How quickly can services start after I pay?
Start dates depend on staffing availability and the completion of the intake and safety review process.
