ACT 150 Waiver Program
in Leetsdale, PA
Supporting Leetsdale residents with physical disabilities to live independently at home through Pennsylvania's ACT 150 waiver program.
ACT 150 Waiver Services in Leetsdale
Leetsdale residents pursuing Act 150 enrollment should call Maximus, the state's 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 daily personal care. The program serves people whose income places them above Medicaid limits, so they cannot use the Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing follows a sliding scale tied to income, which keeps the monthly premium tied to what your household can reasonably pay. After Maximus confirms eligibility, a service coordinator builds your plan with you and our caregiver delivers hands-on support: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and routine housekeeping. Skilled nursing services like wound care fall outside Act 150 and would be coordinated through home health. The Community HealthChoices waiver is Medicaid-funded and covers similar attendant services with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, while the Aging waiver applies to adults 60 and over. Leetsdale is in Allegheny County along the Ohio River, with Heritage Valley Sewickley about five minutes west and the larger UPMC and AHN hospitals downtown roughly 25 minutes away. Our caregivers cover the Sewickley Valley regularly, so loved ones in Leetsdale can usually be matched with consistent staff. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780. We can also help you understand what documents the broker will request during intake.
