Frequently Asked Questions (Lancaster County)
How does the Paid Family Caregiver program work in Lancaster County?
If your relative lives in Lancaster County and is enrolled in a qualifying PA Medicaid Waiver program (such as Community HealthChoice), they can select you as their paid personal caregiver. Accu Home Care manages your payroll setup, state documentation, and weekly direct deposit payments.
Which Community HealthChoice (CHC) plans do you accept in Lancaster County?
We accept all active CHC managed care plans serving Central Pennsylvania, including UPMC Community HealthChoice, PA Health & Wellness, and AmeriHealth Caritas.
Can I become a paid caregiver if I live outside Lancaster County while my relative resides here?
Yes. As long as the individual receiving care lives in Lancaster County (or anywhere in Pennsylvania) and meets PA Medicaid Waiver criteria, your physical residence location within PA does not prevent participation.
How fast can care services or caregiver payroll begin in Lancaster County?
Once PA Medicaid Waiver eligibility is verified and the schedule of care is confirmed, we can match you with an in-home caregiver or complete your family caregiver registration within 24 to 48 hours.
