ACT 150 Waiver Program
in Lawrence, PA
Supporting Lawrence residents with physical disabilities to live independently at home through Pennsylvania's ACT 150 waiver program.
ACT 150 Waiver Services in Lawrence
Lawrence 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 daily activities. The program serves residents whose income places them above Medicaid limits, so they cannot enroll in 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 eligibility screening, a service coordinator builds your plan and our caregiver delivers hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and light housekeeping. Act 150 covers attendant care for activities of daily living, not skilled nursing tasks, which would be arranged through home health. CHC offers similar attendant services through Medicaid with no age cap and a higher hour ceiling, while the Aging waiver applies to adults 60 and older. Lawrence is in Washington County, with Washington Health System Washington Hospital about 15 minutes south and Canonsburg Hospital roughly 10 minutes east. Our caregivers cover the I-79 corridor through Washington County regularly, so loved ones in Lawrence can usually be matched with consistent staff. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 to begin the application and we will walk you through coordination with Maximus.
The ACT 150 program is Pennsylvania's commitment to helping individuals with physical disabilities live with dignity and independence. Through this program, Lawrence residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
