Ohio Home Care Waiver Program
The Ohio Home Care Waiver Program (OHC) meets the needs of people who prefer to get long-term care services and supports in their home or community, rather than in an institutional setting. CareSource has contracted with the Ohio Department of Medicaid in the role of a case management agency.
CareSource, in partnership with Council on Aging, delivers case management services for the OHC program to help people meeting Medicaid financial criteria, who are under 60 years of age and assessed with an Intermediate or Skilled Level of Care, along with other program requirements.
Please visit CareSource’s website for more information.

Ohio Home Care Waiver Program
Description:
Ohio Home Care is for eligible adults age 59 and younger (under 60). Services include nursing, personal care assistance and/or skilled therapy, plus waiver-specific services such as home modifications, home-delivered meals, adult day health care, respite care, supplemental transportation, adaptive/assistive devices, and emergency response systems. Eligible participants must be financially eligible for Medicaid and be assessed for an intermediate or skilled level of care. Without the Ohio Home Care Waiver Program, participants would be at risk for hospital or nursing home placement. Click here for more information. Approved participants instead receive care and services at home. There may be a waiting list for this program. Contact your county Department of Job and Family Services for information about applying for this program.
