Frequently Asked Questions

Caring for a loved one? Proactive Home Healthcare helps you understand your options — and how to get paid for the care you provide!

Who can I hire as a caregiver in Missouri?

In Missouri, you can hire a child, another relative, or even a trusted friend to be your caregiver. This gives families the flexibility to choose someone who knows their loved one best and can provide care in a safe, supportive way at home.

Can I hire my spouse to be my caregiver in Missouri?

No. In Missouri, spouses are not eligible to be paid caregivers through Medicaid programs. However, other family members such as children, relatives, or even close friends may qualify to provide care and receive compensation.

Can I be a paid caregiver for my mother or father in Missouri?

Yes. In Missouri, Adult children can often be paid to care for their parents through state Medicaid programs. This allows you to support your mom or dad at home while receiving financial assistance for the care you already provide.

How can I get paid as a family caregiver in Missouri?

In Missouri, family caregivers can be paid through several Medicaid waiver programs that provide home and community-based services (HCBS). These waivers are designed to keep loved ones at home while offering financial support to caregivers.

Who qualifies for Medicaid paid family caregiving in Missouri?

To qualify, the person receiving care must have Medicaid, live in Missouri, and need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or mobility. They also must be at least 18 years old and able to direct their own care or have someone they trust to help make care decisions. It’s important to note that Medicare alone does not qualify someone for these programs.
