"In-Home Senior Care You Can Count On!"
Getting Started
We here at Majestic PCS understand. Making the decision to get started with home care was not an easy one. And we are here to help you every step of the way. We know you have many questions such as, "How do I get started", "How much will this cost" and "Is there a way to get financial help"? So, let's get started.
1. Have the conversation with your loved one(s) about the need for assistance.
2. Take a quick assessment to determine your needs.
3. Let's figure the cost and explore your pay options.
a. Private pay or self-pay for home care services is the most widely accepted form of payment due to no other available reimbursement sources. It simply means that services are contracted by an individual or family based on their preferences and paid for out of pocket. Most home care services that are needed to assist with activities of daily living are considered non-skilled care. Medicare and other private health insurances will not reimburse for non-skilled home care services leaving private pay as the only payment option.
b. Long Term Care Insurance will cover most home care services that are provided by licensed home care agencies, but policies vary greatly on amount of and extent of coverage depending on your specific plan.
c.Medicaid will cover home care services with limitations that vary from state to state. Medicaid reimburses for home care services through what are known as Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) "waiver" programs. Eligibility for the Medicaid waiver programs are two-fold based on financial requirements and the need for care. The need for care must be extensive enough that without in-home services, he or she would have to move into a nursing home.
d. The Veteran Aid and Attendance benefit provides money to those who need assistance performing everyday tasks. This extra monthly pension is used to cover the costs of in-home care. Usually financial restrictions apply, however, many can qualify when they have large medical expenses for which they do not receive reimbursement. Aid and Attendance benefitsare available to Veterans who served at least 90 days, with at least one day during wartime. The Veteran does not have to have service-related disabilities to qualify and surviving spouses are eligible. Caregivers must be needed to assist veterans at home with activities of daily living such as bathing, feeding, and dressing and also individuals who are bedridden, blind, or residing in a nursing home.

4. Once you have determined that you are eligible for assistance from one of the entities named above, complete their necessary paperwork and give our office a call to set up your start date.
5. If you find that you only qualify for the private pay option, call us to setup your face to face assessment in order to start your services.
