You’re already doing the care. We help make sure you’re supported.
Many people are caring for a loved one without pay. What most families don’t realize is that Ohio Medicaid may allow you to get paid for the care you’re already providing.
Aluma makes the process simple and stress free, so you can focus on what matters most, your family.
What does getting paid as a family caregiver mean?
In Ohio, certain Medicaid programs allow eligible individuals to choose their own caregiver. That caregiver can be a family member or trusted loved one.
If approved, you may receive pay for the care you already provide, along with ongoing guidance and support. No medical background is required.
