Common Questions
Answers to frequently asked questions about getting started.
How long does it take to start services?
Once we have all required documentation and approvals, services can typically begin within 1-2 weeks. We work to expedite the process as much as possible.
What if I don't have Medicaid?
We can help you determine if you qualify for Missouri Medicaid and guide you through the application process. Many people qualify but don't realize it.
Can I choose my caregiver?
With our Consumer Directed Services (CDS) program, you can hire your own caregivers, including family members. With In-Home Healthcare (IHS), we match you with qualified caregivers.
What's the difference between IHS and CDS?
IHS provides agency-employed caregivers, while CDS lets you hire and manage your own caregivers with our support. Both are funded through Medicaid.
