Services include adult day health care, attendant care, small home changes for safety, home-delivered meals, and respite care to give a caregiver a break. You can use an agency, hire your own workers (including family or friends) through Participant Directed Services, or both. You must first qualify for Medicaid; the HCB waiver uses special money rules. Apply for Medicaid on kynect or call DCBS at 855-306-8959, then apply for HCB on kynect or at an Aging and Disability Resource Center. For questions, call DAIL at 877-315-0589.

An assessment must show you need the level of care given in a nursing home, and you must qualify for Medicaid under the waiver's special money rules. There is a waiting list, placed by the date your completed application is received. Medicaid makes the final decision.
