Medicaid-funded respite care services
Taking care of loved ones is rewarding and can come with a bit of stress too. Respite care services are intended to offer relief to primary caregivers.
Respite care services may be provided for primary unpaid caregivers that are in need of relief or will be unable to provide care for recipients for limited periods of time if those caregivers provide the oversight, care, and support needed to prevent the risk of institutionalization of a recipient by assisting with basic personal activities or with activities related to independent living.
These services may be provided in the recipient’s private residence, in the private residence of the respite care services provider, in specified licensed facilities, or at community locations that contribute to furthering the goals of the recipient.
There are two types of respite care services: Hourly respite and daily respite.
Hourly respite is any respite care provided in one calendar day that is less than 12 hours in duration. Daily respite is any respite care in one calendar day that is 12 or more hours of care provided. A client can be approved for both types of respite care.
The specific tasks that a caregiver may assist a client to complete are identified in a client’s state-approved plan.
