Medicaid Home Care Clients in Ohio: A Guide for Agencies

By Adult Care Network ·

Ohio has a sizable Medicaid home care market spread across several programs. If you’re an Ohio agency planning for growth, here’s the landscape — and a note on where Adult Care Network stands in the state.

The programs (ODM / ODA)

Ohio funds in-home personal care through programs including the Ohio Home Care Waiver (administered by the Ohio Department of Medicaid) and PASSPORT (administered by the Ohio Department of Aging for older adults), along with MyCare Ohio for dual-eligible members. Agency personal care aide reimbursement on the current Ohio Home Care Waiver schedule is around $29/hour, though you should confirm the current figure and billing rules against the official source.

See the official details at Ohio Department of Medicaid.

What this means for agencies

  • Know which program your client is in. Ohio Home Care Waiver, PASSPORT, and MyCare Ohio have different administration and care-management structures.
  • Case managers and care coordinators are the gateway to authorized services — relationships there drive referrals.
  • Confirm eligibility and level of care early, before investing time or lead spend in a family.

Preparing to grow in Ohio

The fundamentals travel: a clear website, referral relationships with case managers and discharge planners, and — once you can handle volume — measured paid leads screened for Ohio location, Medicaid eligibility, and genuine home-care need.

Adult Care Network is expanding into Ohio. We’re signing founding partners now — agencies that get first access to pre-qualified, screened Ohio leads delivered to their portal, matched to service area and shared with no more than three agencies, for a flat fee per qualified lead, never per enrollment. We’re a marketing-services company, not a provider.
