Common Questions About Georgia Caregiver Programs

Can family members really get paid to care for a loved one?

In some situations, Georgia Medicaid programs allow family members or trusted individuals to provide care at home. Depending on eligibility and program rules, caregivers may receive compensation while helping their loved one remain safely at home.

What programs are available in Georgia?

Several Medicaid programs may provide home care services in Georgia, including:

• SOURCE (Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment)
• ICWP (Independent Care Waiver Program)
• Family caregiver support options

Our team helps determine which program may fit your situation.

Does my loved one need to have Medicaid?

Yes, most of these programs require the person receiving care to be enrolled in Georgia Medicaid or eligible to apply. If you are unsure about Medicaid status, we can help review possible options.

Who can become a caregiver?

Depending on the program and eligibility rules, caregivers may include:

• Adult children
