Will DSS or Medicaid pay for my friend helping me?

I have a friend that I would prefer to help me cause my activities are limited.

Are you asking if the State could pay your friend to be your caregiver? It all depends on what State you live in and if that State offers any type of program that will pay a small salary to a caregiver. Each State is different regarding rules, regulations, and programs... and budget cuts will lessen some of those programs. Contact your State's Medicaid office or social services to see what is available.
