Can I draw caregivers pay for my spouse who has disability for schizophrenia?

Joy, is your spouse on Medicaid [which is different from Medicare]? If yes, check with your State Medicaid office to see if they have a program where you can get paid. One time I remember reading that spouses usually are not paid, but it would be worth checking into you. If you can get paid, please note the pay would be minimal.

If you spouse was in the military, check with your local Veteran's department to see if there are any available programs.
