Elderly and Disabled Waiver¶
Elderly and Disabled Waiver provides home and community-based services through Medicaid.
Questions to ask the program¶
These are questions to ask the program, not a verdict on your eligibility. Confirm the current rules directly with the program.
- Does the person receiving care live in Alabama? — Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- What are the current income and asset limits, and whose income counts? — Our record lists gross monthly limit around $2,901 for a household of one — limits change, so confirm the current figures.
- Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name. — Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
- What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
