ACT 150 Waiver Program
in Madison, PA
Supporting Madison residents with physical disabilities to live independently at home through Pennsylvania's ACT 150 waiver program.
ACT 150 Waiver Services in Madison
Madison residents starting the Act 150 process should call 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 who have a physical disability and need help with the activities of daily living. The program is meant for people whose income disqualifies them from the Medicaid-funded Community HealthChoices waiver. Cost-sharing operates on a sliding scale tied to income, so the monthly premium adjusts to what your household can comfortably pay. Maximus handles eligibility screening and refers approved applicants to a service coordinator who develops the plan. Our caregiver then delivers hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and light cleaning. Skilled nursing services are not part of Act 150 and would be coordinated separately through home health. CHC offers similar attendant services through Medicaid with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, while the Aging waiver covers adults 60 and over. Madison is in Westmoreland County, with Excela Westmoreland in Greensburg about 10 minutes north and Mon Valley Hospital roughly 20 minutes west. Our caregivers serve the Greensburg and Youngwood corridor regularly, so matching a consistent caregiver for your loved one in Madison is usually straightforward. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 to begin the application or discuss scheduling. We can also explain what changes if your loved one later qualifies for the Medicaid CHC waiver.
The ACT 150 program is Pennsylvania's commitment to helping individuals with physical disabilities live with dignity and independence. Through this program, Madison residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
