ACT 150 Waiver Program
in Brier Hill, PA
Supporting Brier Hill residents with physical disabilities to live independently at home through Pennsylvania's ACT 150 waiver program.
ACT 150 Waiver Services in Brier Hill
Brier Hill families pursuing Act 150 services should call Maximus, the independent enrollment broker, at 1-877-550-4227. Act 150 is Pennsylvania's state-funded attendant care program for adults 18 to 59 who have a physical disability and need help with daily personal care. The program serves residents whose income places them above Medicaid limits, so they cannot use the Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing is set on a sliding scale tied to income, which keeps the monthly premium proportional to what your household can pay. Once Maximus completes eligibility, a service coordinator builds your plan and our caregiver delivers hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and routine housekeeping. Skilled nursing tasks like wound care or injections are not covered by Act 150 and would be coordinated through home health. The Community HealthChoices waiver is Medicaid-funded with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, while the Aging waiver covers adults 60 and older. Brier Hill is in Fayette County, with Uniontown Hospital about 15 minutes south and Highlands Hospital in Connellsville roughly 25 minutes east. Our agency staffs caregivers across rural Fayette regularly, which makes consistent coverage for loved ones in Brier Hill realistic even in smaller communities. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 and we will walk you through the application and scheduling process. Our intake staff can also help review the basic eligibility criteria before you contact Maximus.
