Your Trusted Medicaid Home Helper Program in Farmington Hills, MI
At CareOne Senior Care, we serve as your knowledgeable guide through every step of accessing the Home Helper Program in Farmington Hills, MI. We provide the expertise and administrative support to help you navigate the system successfully. Think of us as your dedicated partner, committed to simplifying the process and empowering you to find the perfect caregiver for your loved one. Our team has extensive experience with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) requirements and the entire enrollment process.
Our role is to lift the administrative burden from your shoulders. We help you understand the eligibility criteria, prepare for the in-home care assessment, and complete the necessary paperwork. Most importantly, we facilitate the process that allows a trusted family member or friend to become the official, paid caregiver. By handling the complexities of background checks and provider enrollment, our reliable service ensures everything is compliant with state regulations. This allows you to focus on what truly matters: the well-being of your loved one.
Understanding the Official Program Requirements
How Eligibility is Determined for the Client
To ensure clarity, it’s essential to understand the specific requirements set by the state of Michigan for its Home Help program. This program is a Medicaid entitlement designed to provide critical in-home assistance. Our team helps you navigate every one of these official steps.
The person receiving care (the client or recipient) must first qualify for the program. The process involves meeting five key benchmarks:
Be Medicaid-eligible
The individual must be enrolled in Michigan Medicaid, which means they meet the state’s income and asset limits.
Be a Michigan resident
They must currently live in Michigan and be a U.S. citizen or an eligible non-citizen.
Have a doctor's certification
A physician must provide a formal statement certifying the medical necessity for the care.
Have a medical need
The individual must require hands-on assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), such as bathing and dressing, or Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs), including meal preparation and housekeeping.
Complete an in-home assessment
A local MDHHS worker must conduct an in-home visit to perform a needs assessment.
Once a client is approved, MDHHS determines the number of hours per month for which the client is authorized to receive services. Those hours can then be assigned to an eligible family or friend caregiver.
Empowering Family Members as Paid Caregivers
One of the program’s most significant benefits is the ability to hire a trusted family member or friend. This ensures your loved one receives care from someone they are already comfortable with.
Who can be hired:
- Adult children (18+)
- Grandchildren
- Siblings
- Aunts/uncles, nieces/nephews
- Close friends or neighbors
Who cannot be hired:
- Spouses (unless legally separated and considered “unavailable”)
- Parents of minor children
Official Caregiver Eligibility Requirements
To become an approved provider, the chosen caregiver must also meet specific state criteria. We guide you through this entire process. The caregiver:
- Must be 18 years or older.
- Must be physically and mentally capable of performing required tasks (bathing, dressing, meal prep, etc.).
- Must pass a criminal background check through both CareOne Senior Care and the state’s CHAMPS system. Certain convictions, such as those related to fraud, abuse, or neglect, are automatic disqualifiers from receiving benefits.
- Must complete enrollment in CHAMPS and be approved as a provider.
- Must be willing to keep accurate records and time sheets of the care provided.
