About ACT 150

ACT 150 Waiver Services in Eighty Four

Eighty Four families looking into Act 150 should start by calling Maximus, the independent enrollment broker, at 1-877-550-4227. Act 150 is Pennsylvania's state-funded attendant care program for adults between 18 and 59 who have a physical disability and need help with the basic activities of daily living. The program is meant for residents whose income disqualifies them from the Medicaid-funded Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing is set on a sliding scale tied to income, so the monthly premium matches what your household can comfortably pay. Maximus handles eligibility screening and refers approved applicants to a service coordinator who develops your care plan. Our caregiver then comes to the home to help with bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and light cleaning. Act 150 does not include skilled nursing tasks, which fall to home health. Compared to CHC, which is Medicaid-funded with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, Act 150 supports working-age adults whose income is above Medicaid limits. The Aging waiver, by contrast, applies to people 60 and older. Eighty Four is in Washington County, with Washington Health System Washington Hospital about 10 minutes west and Canonsburg Hospital roughly 12 minutes north. Our caregivers regularly serve the Route 519 corridor, which makes scheduling realistic for loved ones in Eighty Four. 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, Eighty Four residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
