About ACT 150

ACT 150 Waiver Services in Bethel Park

Bethel Park residents pursuing Act 150 services should contact Maximus, Pennsylvania's independent enrollment broker, at 1-877-550-4227. Act 150 is the state-funded attendant care program for adults 18 to 59 with a physical disability who need help with the activities of daily living. The program is built for residents whose income is too high to qualify for Medicaid, so they cannot use the Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing operates on a sliding scale tied to household income, which keeps the monthly premium proportional to what your family can pay. After Maximus completes the eligibility screen, a service coordinator develops your plan and our caregiver provides hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and routine housekeeping. Skilled nursing services are not part of Act 150 and would be coordinated separately through home health. CHC is Medicaid-funded with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, while the Aging waiver applies to people 60 and over. Bethel Park is in Allegheny County in the South Hills, with St. Clair Hospital about 10 minutes west and Jefferson Hospital roughly 10 minutes east. Both are routine acute care destinations for loved ones in this corridor. Our caregivers serve the South Hills regularly, so consistent scheduling for loved ones in Bethel Park is realistic. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 to begin.

The ACT 150 program is Pennsylvania's commitment to helping individuals with physical disabilities live with dignity and independence. Through this program, Bethel Park residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
