Could You Be Paid for the Care You Give?
You deserve to know your options. Answer a few questions and we'll point you toward programs and paths that may work for your situation.
Question 1 of 6
Who is your caree?
Your caree is the person you're caring for — the one whose needs shape your days.
"For decades, family caregiving has been invisible labor — expected but non-reimbursed. That's changing. Let's see what's available to you." — Denise
Question 2 of 6
Does your caree currently receive Medicaid?
Medicaid is a state and federal program for people with limited income. It's different from Medicare. Many states have Medicaid programs that allow a family member to be paid as the care provider.
Question 3 of 6
Where does your caree live?
Many payment programs require the family caregiver to live with or near the caree. This affects which programs apply.
Question 4 of 6
What is your relationship to your caree?
Some programs exclude certain relationships — for example, a few Medicaid programs won't pay a spouse. It's important to know upfront.
Question 5 of 6
How many hours a week do you provide hands-on care?
Hands-on care includes personal care, medical tasks, transportation, and direct supervision — not just being nearby.
Question 6 of 6
Are you currently receiving any payment or compensation for caregiving?
This helps us understand where you are in the process — beginning to explore, or looking to formalize something already in place.
