ACT 150 Waiver Program
in Cuddy, PA
Supporting Cuddy residents with physical disabilities to live independently at home through Pennsylvania's ACT 150 waiver program.
ACT 150 Waiver Services in Cuddy
Cuddy residents who want to enroll in Act 150 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 with a physical disability who need hands-on help with daily activities. The program serves residents whose income places them above Medicaid limits, so they cannot use the Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing follows a sliding scale tied to household income, which keeps the monthly premium proportional to what your family can pay. Once Maximus completes eligibility screening, a service coordinator develops your plan and our caregiver delivers hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and light housekeeping. Skilled nursing tasks fall outside Act 150 and would be coordinated through home health. By comparison, CHC is Medicaid-funded with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, while the Aging waiver applies to adults 60 and over. Cuddy is in South Fayette Township in Allegheny County, with Canonsburg Hospital about 10 minutes south and St. Clair Hospital roughly 15 minutes east. Our caregivers serve the South Fayette and Bridgeville corridor regularly, which makes consistent scheduling realistic for loved ones in Cuddy. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 to begin the application or to ask any questions about eligibility. We can also explain what changes if your loved one later becomes Medicaid-eligible and moves to CHC.
The ACT 150 program is Pennsylvania's commitment to helping individuals with physical disabilities live with dignity and independence. Through this program, Cuddy residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
