How Home & Community-Based Services Works

Paying for Your Care

To qualify for day support, individuals must meet the following criteria:

Qualifying IDD Diagnosis: The individual must have a documented intellectual or developmental disability diagnosed before the age of 22.
Proof of Diagnosis: A psychological assessment with IQ and adaptive behavior scores is required.

Each state has its own process for determining eligibility for services, and funding options may vary. Day Programs are typically funded through Medicaid or state-specific waiver programs. Private pay is an additional funding option. The rate is determined by state Medicaid non-compete rates.
