About ACT 150

ACT 150 Waiver Services in New Stanton

New Stanton residents who want to begin the Act 150 process 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 help with the activities of daily living. The program is built for residents whose income disqualifies them from Medicaid waivers, so it fills a real gap for working-age adults. Cost-sharing operates on a sliding scale tied to household income, which keeps the monthly premium proportional to what you can pay. Once Maximus completes the eligibility screen, a service coordinator develops your plan and our caregiver provides hands-on support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, grooming, and light cleaning. Skilled nursing services are not covered by Act 150 and would be handled separately through home health. CHC is Medicaid-funded and covers similar attendant services with no age cap and a higher hour ceiling, while the Aging waiver serves adults 60 and over. New Stanton is in Westmoreland County at the I-70 and I-76 interchange, with Excela Westmoreland in Greensburg about 10 minutes east and Mon Valley Hospital roughly 20 minutes west. Our caregivers cover this corridor regularly, so loved ones in New Stanton can usually be matched without long delays. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780. We can also explain how Act 150 hours differ from CHC hours if your situation changes.

The ACT 150 program is Pennsylvania's commitment to helping individuals with physical disabilities live with dignity and independence. Through this program, New Stanton residents can access essential services that make it possible to remain at home rather than moving to a care facility.
