WHAT WE DO
We Pay Michigan Family Caregivers Through The Home Help Program
Our team checks your eligibility with the Michigan Home Help Program through Medicaid, consumer directed programs, veteran directed care programs, respite care services, paid family leave programs, and more government home health care programs.
All the while, Paid.care elevates your caregiver skills through training, certifications and assistance and gets you paid for the exceptional level of care you provide for your care recipient — an elderly or disabled love one.
Note: due to current state regulations, Medicare is NOT enough to become a paid family caregiver in Michigan.3 STEPS TO GET PAID
