Nebraska's Choice for Home Care

Navigating Home Care in Nebraska

Concerned About the Cost of Home Care?

In Nebraska, home care services may be covered through Medicaid under the Aged and Disabled (AD) Waiver. This HCBS program supports individuals who meet Medicaid financial requirements and Nursing Facility Level of Care. Coverage depends on eligibility review, assessment, and state authorization.

Can a Family Member Be Paid to Provide Care?

In certain Nebraska Medicaid programs, including consumer-directed models under the Aged and Disabled (AD) Waiver, eligible individuals can select a qualified caregiver. Participation depends on waiver structure, program authorization, and state requirements. Our team explains available options under Nebraska Medicaid guidelines.

Already Receiving Services from Another Provider?

If you are enrolled in the AD Waiver and working with another provider, switching agencies may be possible without restarting your eligibility process. We assist with program coordination and ensure compliance with Nebraska Medicaid service continuity requirements.
