I am a resident in a nursing home facility and have applied for the Medicaid Waiver for Older Adults Program. Why can I go home and wait to be approved?
If you reside in a nursing home, and wish to be accepted into the Medicaid Waiver for Older Adults Program, you must go through the application process. Before you can be approved and leave the nursing home, you must have received Long Term Care Medicaid benefits and lived in the nursing home for at least thirty consecutive days. The approval process includes writing an appropriate plan of care. The plan of care identifies the services that you will need to live safely in the community.
