Caring for a loved one in Indiana? FreedomCare helps you understand your options — and how to get paid for the care you provide!
Can I get paid to take care of a family member in Indiana?
Yes, Indiana allows certain family members to be paid caregivers through Medicaid waiver programs like Aged & Disabled and Health & Wellness. If your loved one qualifies, FreedomCare can guide you through the process so you can care for them at home while receiving reliable pay for the support you provide.
What is the Indiana caregiver waiver program?
Indiana offers two main Medicaid waiver programs that allow family members to be paid caregivers. The Health & Wellness Waiver helps adults of all ages who need daily support, while the PathWays to Aging Waiver is designed for seniors 60 and older who would otherwise need nursing home care. Both programs make it possible for loved ones to get care at home from family caregivers — with FreedomCare here to guide you through every step.
How to become a paid caregiver for a family member in Indiana
To become a paid caregiver in Indiana, your loved one must qualify for Medicaid and be approved for either the Health & Wellness Waiver or the PathWays to Aging Waiver. Once approved, you can choose a trusted family member as the caregiver, and FreedomCare will help with the paperwork, enrollment, and payroll so you can focus on care while your loved one gets support from someone they trust.
Who can be a paid family caregiver in Indiana?
In Indiana, caregivers must:
- Be at least 18 years old
- Be eligible to work in the United States
- Not be excluded from the Medicaid program
The caregiver can be either a family member or a non-family member, as long as they live in the same home as the participant. However, due to state rules, spouses are not eligible to be paid caregivers in Indiana.
Can I be a paid caregiver for my spouse in Indiana?
No, Indiana does not allow spouses to be paid caregivers under Medicaid waiver programs. While you can’t be paid to care for your husband or wife, other family members — like an adult child, sibling, or close relative — may qualify. FreedomCare can help you explore the options so your loved one still gets care from someone they trust.
Can I get paid to take care of my mother or father in Indiana?
Yes, you can be paid to care for your mother or father in Indiana if they qualify for Medicaid and are approved for a waiver program such as Health & Wellness or PathWays to Aging. FreedomCare will guide you through the process so you can provide care for your mom or dad at home while receiving reliable pay for the support you give every day.
