See all 55 questions about Supplemental Security Income of the IHCP is Home and Community Based Waiver Programs that pay reimbursement for reasonable and necessary medical care for persons who qualify for Medicaid and who would need to move to a nursing home if they did not receive sufficient care in the home. One of these waiver programs is the Aged and Disabled Waiver (A&D), which can provide an alternative to nursing facility admission for Medicaid eligible persons over the age of sixty-five (65), and persons of all ages with disabilities.It provides support to supplement informal home care for persons who would need nursing facility care if these services were not available. The services available through this waiver are designed to help people remain in their own homes. Some programs like this provide respite care and other forms of assistance directly to caregivers.

To find out whether you might qualify for the Indiana waiver program, or some similar Indiana state-sponsored program, and whether that program could provide some payment directly to your ex-husband as your caregiver, you need to contact the IHCP directly at the phone number provided on the IHCP Web site (above).
