The Nursing Home Transition and Diversion Medicaid Waiver Program
A medicaid waiver program designed to help Medicaid eligible seniors and people with physical disabilities receive comprehensive services they need to live in a community-based setting, such as their home.
Our Focus
The Home and Community Support Service (HCSS) is focused on providing a home care service plan that is not covered by the traditional health plans or managed long term care plans (MLTC). The goal of the HCSS is to provide constant and consistent home care service hours to ensure qualified individuals are never left alone in the home.
How It Works
The Service Coordinator (SC) assists the applicant in becoming a waiver participant and coordinates and monitors the provision of all services in the service plan once the individual is determined eligible.
For individuals transferring from nursing facilities, the SC facilitates the necessary support to maintain the individual's health and well-being sufficient to avoid unwanted nursing home placement.
Our goal is to prevent accidents that could happen in the home due to lack of assistance or supervision.
