Common Questions About Paid Family Caregiving
Can a family member or friend really get paid to be the caregiver?
Yes. Through Indiana’s family caregiver pay programs, an eligible family member, friend, or neighbor can be hired and paid to provide care. We help you check eligibility and walk you through every step.
How much does this cost out of pocket?
For families who qualify through Medicaid Waiver or other state programs, there is typically zero out-of-pocket cost. Our team will run a free eligibility check to find the best path for your situation.
How fast can care actually start?
Once eligibility is confirmed, care can usually begin within a few business days. For urgent situations — like recent hospital discharge — we can often move even faster.

Our 16 northeast Indiana counties. Whether you’re in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville, or a small town, we have a care team ready to support you.
Do you accept Medicaid waivers or VA benefits?
Yes. We work with Indiana Medicaid waiver programs (including Aged & Disabled and CHOICE), VA Aid & Attendance, long-term care insurance, and private pay. We’ll help you figure out what you qualify for.
