Eligibility

Service in these counties is available if facilities there accept the waiver and are certified. Must be age 21 or older and either reside in a nursing home, be enrolled in a Medicaid waiver program (PASSPORT or Ohio Home Care) or be a resident of an assisted living facility in Ohio for at least six months, whose personal finances have been depleted, making them eligible for Medicaid. Applicants must have a minimum monthly income (agency will review amount) since participants are expected to pay room and board costs established by the state.
