Care is needed while Medicaid or health-plan options are still being explored
The family wants more hours or a different schedule than a program authorizes
A loved one needs help at home but does not qualify for Medicaid Home Help
A family caregiver needs dependable relief or backup support
Looking for Medicaid Home Help or family-caregiver payment instead?
How it works
Four steps from first call to care at home.
Tell us what help is needed
Describe the daily routine, the care recipient’s location, and the times when support matters most.
Confirm service and caregiver availability
Allcare confirms the ZIP code, requested schedule, care needs, and caregiver availability.
Agree on the care plan and cost
Before services start, the family reviews the schedule, responsibilities, current rate, and service agreement.
Begin care and stay connected
The care plan can be reviewed as needs or schedules change.
Private-pay questions
Clear answers before you decide.
What does private-pay home care mean?+
Private pay means the client or family pays Allcare directly for agreed non-medical home-care services instead of waiting for Medicaid Home Help or a health plan to authorize the care.
Does my loved one need Medicaid?+
No. Medicaid is not required to purchase private-pay services. If the person has Medicaid or a health plan, tell us so we can explain which questions should be verified before you choose a payment path.
What services can we request?+
Common requests include bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, mobility help, meal preparation, light housekeeping, companionship, reminders, and safety supervision. Allcare confirms the exact service plan before care begins.
How much does private-pay care cost?+
Cost depends on the requested schedule, care needs, location, and current Allcare rates. Call for a clear explanation of the current rate and any scheduling minimum before agreeing to services.
Can long-term-care insurance help pay?+
Some policies may reimburse qualifying home-care expenses. Benefits, documentation, waiting periods, and reimbursement rules depend on the individual policy, so the family should confirm directly with the insurer.
Is there a minimum number of hours?+
Minimum scheduling requirements can vary. Allcare will explain the current minimum and rate before you agree to services.
Can care be temporary or scheduled on evenings and weekends?+
Short-term, evening, or weekend requests may be possible, depending on the ZIP code, requested hours, care needs, and caregiver availability.
How quickly can care begin?+
Timing depends on the requested hours, location, care needs, caregiver availability, and completion of the service agreement. Allcare will give the family a realistic answer after the initial care conversation.
