Frequently Asked Questions (Philadelphia)
How does the Paid Family Caregiver program work in Philadelphia?
If your relative lives in Philadelphia and receives PA Medicaid Waiver coverage (such as Community HealthChoice through PCA), they can select you as their designated personal caregiver. Accu Home Care handles your employment setup, tax documentation, and weekly direct deposit payroll.
Which Community HealthChoice (CHC) plans do you accept in Philadelphia?
We accept all active CHC managed care organizations operating in Philadelphia County, including UPMC Community HealthChoice, PA Health & Wellness, and AmeriHealth Caritas.
Can I become a paid caregiver if I live in a neighboring county, but my relative lives in Philadelphia?
Yes. As long as the care recipient resides in Philadelphia (or anywhere in PA) and meets PA Medicaid Waiver eligibility, your physical residence location within Pennsylvania does not affect your enrollment.
How quickly can in-home care or caregiver payroll begin in Philadelphia?
Once PA Medicaid Waiver status is confirmed and the schedule of care is established, we can match you with an in-home caregiver or complete family caregiver onboarding within 24 to 48 hours.
