Medicaid Home Care in Philadelphia
Medicaid coverage and home-care authorization depend on the individual and the applicable program. Confirm the details before arranging services.
Understanding Community HealthChoices
Pennsylvania’s Community HealthChoices program serves eligible adults who meet its enrollment rules. Home and community-based benefits may help eligible participants receive support outside an institution. A Medicaid card alone does not establish a specific benefit, number of care hours or provider arrangement.
Check the exact plan and provider
Ask your plan whether the requested service is covered, whether American Dream Caregivers is currently participating for that service and location, and whether any assessment, order or authorization is needed. Confirm participation directly with both the plan and our team.
Confirm costs before scheduling
Coverage depends on your specific plan, eligibility, authorized services, and our participation. Contact us to confirm coverage and any expected cost before scheduling care. Do not assume every service is free or that all requested hours will be approved.
Transfers and applications
For a new application or agency transfer, confirm the required steps and timing with the program, plan and agencies involved. Coordinate the transition before ending an existing arrangement; a gap-free transfer cannot be guaranteed by this website.

Common questions
Does having Medicaid guarantee home-care services?
No. Eligibility for the applicable benefit, assessed needs, authorization and provider participation must be confirmed.
Can a relative be a paid caregiver?
Some approved arrangements may allow eligible family caregivers. Relationship and employment restrictions apply; review the family-caregiver information and confirm the exact rules with the plan.
