Through Medicaid, if you live with your caregiver, they can get paid to take care of you!

Effective July 1, 2024, the Aged and Disabled (A&D) Waiver has been renamed the Health & Wellness Waiver (H&W) for Hoosiers under the age of 60. If you are 60 or older, your services are now managed under the PathWays for Aging Waiver.

Real People, Real Changes

Patricia Charles

“Best program ever”

I’ve had aides in the past, but it always ended badly. This is one of the best programs ever. I’m so happy that my niece is helping me.

Richard Branker

“Mom is getting stronger, and it feels so good”

We brought in a couple of aides for my mother, but I could tell she wasn’t happy. Now I get to care for Mom daily — and she’s smiling and laughing. I feel really good, knowing she’s getting stronger each day.

Elizabeth Salley

“Her face lit up!”

It was hard, because I didn’t want to leave my mom at home – I was scared she’d leave the stove on or get hurt. And you only get one mother. Now I get to have a job AND care for my mom at once. It’s literally PERFECT.
