Elite Home Health Care
Who pays

How home care is paid for.

Most Elite families are covered through Pennsylvania Medicaid waivers. Here's a plain-English guide to what applies to your household.

The short answer: Adults 21+ with intellectual disabilities are usually covered through ODP waivers; adults 21+ with physical disabilities through OLTL / Community HealthChoices; and children through Pennsylvania Medicaid and pediatric programs. Private pay is available for anything not covered. We verify eligibility before care begins.

ODP waivers (adults with IDD)

Adults 21+ with intellectual or developmental disabilities in Pennsylvania are typically covered through ODP waivers — Consolidated, Person/Family Directed Support (P/FDS), and Community Living. We help confirm your waiver and enrollment.

  • Consolidated, P/FDS, and Community Living waivers
  • In-home and community participation supports
  • Case management coordination

OLTL & Community HealthChoices (adults with physical disabilities)

Long Term Care services through the Office of Long-Term Living cover adults 21+ with physical disabilities who choose to remain at home. Most participants are enrolled through Community HealthChoices (CHC).

  • OLTL waivers and Community HealthChoices
  • Choose-your-own-caregiver enrollment
  • Weekly pay and overtime for caregivers

Pediatric Medicaid programs

Children — newborn through age 21 — with medical, physical, or intellectual complexity are typically covered through Pennsylvania Medicaid and pediatric waivers. We verify eligibility before care begins.

  • Pennsylvania Medicaid for children
  • Pediatric home-care programs
  • Coordination with your child's medical team
