Getting Medicaid Home Care Clients in Georgia
Georgia’s Medicaid home care services run mainly through two programs: the Community Care Services Program (CCSP) and SOURCE. For agencies growing census in Georgia, understanding both is the starting point.
The programs: CCSP and SOURCE (GA DCH)
Both programs, administered under the Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH), help eligible older adults and people with disabilities receive personal support and home-based services as an alternative to facility care. SOURCE adds enhanced care coordination tied to a primary care case management model. Published personal support rates have been around $20/hour, but confirm the current figure and service code against the official fee schedule.

What this means for agencies
These are waiver-style programs with care coordination built in, which shapes how agencies grow:
- Case management is the gateway. Care coordinators and CCSP/SOURCE case managers authorize and direct services — relationships here drive referrals.
- Eligibility and level-of-care matter. Confirm the family’s Medicaid status and that they meet the program’s level-of-care criteria early.
- Geography counts. Coverage and coordinator networks vary across Georgia’s counties and regions.
Reaching Georgia families efficiently
Building relationships with case managers, AAA offices, and discharge planners is the foundation. Paid leads can add volume — but only when they’re screened for Georgia location, Medicaid eligibility, and real home-care need, and aren’t being sold to a crowd.
Adult Care Network is live in Georgia. We screen families against a written standard tuned to Georgia’s programs, deliver each to your portal in real time, and cap distribution at no more than three matched agencies — flat fee per qualified lead, never per enrollment.
