Indiana PathWays waiver

Support for family caregivers and older Hoosiers

Structured Family Caregiving is designed for an eligible participant who lives with a primary caregiver. The caregiver provides daily care based on assessed needs and receives training and ongoing support through an approved provider agency.

  • The participant generally must meet Medicaid and functional eligibility requirements.
  • The participant and caregiver must live together in an approved private-home setting.
  • A service coordinator and provider agency help establish and oversee the care plan.
  • Final eligibility, service level and authorization come from Indiana Medicaid and the member’s PathWays health plan.
