Maine Elderly and Adults with Disabilities Waiver

Maine’s Elderly and Adults with Disabilities Waiver program is a Medicaid (MaineCare) program that assists older adults and persons with disabilities to remain living at home. This program offers consumer direction, meaning, the care recipient can choose to self-direct their care to a person of their own choosing. This person may be a family member, excluding spouses and legal guardians. Services may include:

• Personal attendant services
• Assistive technology
• Communication aids
• Counseling and consultation
• Non-medical transportation
• Respite care
• Home modifications
