Medicaid FAQs

What's the difference between Medicaid and Medicare?

Medicaid is state-run insurance for low-income individuals. Medicare is federal insurance for people 65+. We accept Medicaid. If you have Medicare questions, ask your doctor or call (401) 402-0076 to discuss your options.

How quickly can Medicaid-covered care start?

Once Medicaid approves your application and we're assigned as your provider, care can typically begin within 1–2 weeks. Timelines vary based on your case manager and plan.

Do I need to pay anything out of pocket?

No, if you qualify for Medicaid. Care is covered. If you're eligible for cost-sharing, we'll explain it clearly upfront.

Can I choose my caregiver?

Yes. We match caregivers based on your needs, preferences, and personality fit. If the match isn't right, we make a change.

What happens if my Medicaid coverage ends?

We'll help you understand your options, including private-pay alternatives or reapplication. We want to keep you in care.

Do you accept other insurance (UnitedHealthcare, etc.)?

Yes. We accept UnitedHealthcare and other managed plans. Call us to verify your specific coverage.
