About ACT 150

ACT 150 Waiver Services in South Heights

South Heights residents starting an Act 150 application 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 hands-on help with daily activities. It exists for residents whose income puts them above Medicaid limits, so they cannot enroll in Community HealthChoices. Cost-sharing follows a sliding scale tied to income, which keeps premiums reasonable for working households. After Maximus completes the eligibility screen, a service coordinator builds your plan and our caregiver delivers the actual support at home: bathing, dressing, transferring, toileting, meal prep, and light housekeeping. Act 150 covers attendant care, not skilled nursing, so things like wound care or injections are handled through home health. Compared to CHC, which is Medicaid-funded with no age cap and a higher service ceiling, Act 150 fills the gap for working-age adults with higher income. The Aging waiver applies to adults 60 and older. South Heights is in Beaver County along the Ohio River, with Heritage Valley Sewickley about 10 minutes south and Heritage Valley Beaver roughly 15 minutes west. Our caregivers cover the lower Beaver County corridor frequently, which means consistent scheduling is realistic for loved ones in South Heights. Call Care Solutions of Pittsburgh at (412) 341-7780 to begin. If you have already started paperwork with the broker, share the case number and we will pick up from there.

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