Waiver/ Insurance

Waivers and Insurances can be a complicated process. HANDS is here to help. 

Indiana offers several Medicaid waivers, also known as Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS), to help individuals with disabilities live in their homes and communities rather than in institutions. These waivers allow Medicaid to fund services like in-home care, therapies, and residential supports. Specifically, Indiana has the Health and Wellness Waiver for individuals under 60 and the Indiana PathWays for Aging Waiver for those 60 and older, which replaced the previous Aged and Disabled Waiver. Additionally, there are the Community Integration and Habilitation Waiver, Family Supports Waiver, and Traumatic Brain Injury Waiver.  See below fact sheets from Indiana Family to Family for details:
