Helping Seniors Maintain Their Independence

Personal Care Services offer in-home support for individuals 18 and older, assisting with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, meals, transportation, and companionship—promoting safety, independence, and comfort at home. Services typically cost between $35–$45 per hour, and may be covered by Medicaid, VA benefits, or for EEOICPA White Card holders. Not all PCS providers accept Medicaid.

No, Medicare does not typically pay for Personal Care Services (PCS) that involve help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or meal preparation. Medicare primarily covers medically necessary services, such as skilled nursing or therapy, but not routine personal care. 

However, some Medicaid programs, VA benefits, and other assistance programs may cover PCS costs depending on eligibility.  

However, it may cover certain medical services that individuals may need, including:

• Physician visits
   
• Hospital care
   
• Prescription medications (under Part D)
   
• Short-term skilled nursing or rehabilitation following a hospital stay
   
• Some types of in-home health care, if medically necessary.
