"The state of New York offers a program called Expanded In-home Services for the Elderly or EISEP for short. This program provides non-medical services such as personal care, adult day care, and transportation assistance to seniors who live in their homes, as well as support services, such as case management. One objective of the program is to prevent, or at least delay, the placement of frail, elderly state residents in more expensive Medicaid-funded nursing homes. By providing services for seniors and their caregivers in their homes, the state hopes to both save money and provide the aged and disabled with a higher quality of life, while allowing them to continue to live in the community."
Are you talking about Medicare or Medicaid? If Medicare, look on the back of her supplemental insurance card for the customer service number to call to ask your question to.
Look up Medicaid State office for your state and call asking them for a medicaid advisor to speak with. Medicaid works differently in every state and for every individual in that state. Wish you the best of luck.
