What if your loved one with developmental disabilities could get full home care services at zero cost to your family? It's possible through New York's OPWDD program, but the paperwork and requirements trip up thousands of families every year. That's where Homecare Advisory Group comes in. They specialize in turning a confusing, stressful enrollment process into a clear path to free, state-funded care.
Now, let's talk about what OPWDD actually provides. This is one of the largest free home care systems in the country. Over thirty five thousand people are supported across seven thousand certified sites, backed by four-point-five billion dollars in annual Medicaid funding.
Families can access free services like 24-hour supervised group homes; supportive living with partial supervision; day programs and skill development; family support and respite care; employment training and job placement; and full health care, including medical and behavioral therapies.
So, how do you qualify? The key is eligibility. OPWDD requires a developmental disability diagnosed before age 22 — conditions like autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and similar developmental challenges. Families need medical documentation, plus assessments showing current support needs.
Here's how the enrollment works: first comes an eligibility assessment with medical evaluations and disability documentation. Once approved, OPWDD creates an Individualized Service Plan — a roadmap of the exact services your loved one will receive, all at no cost. Service coordinators then connect families with the right housing, day programs, health care, and family support.
And Homecare Advisory Group streamlines this entire process. They gather your medical records, complete eligibility assessments, handle Medicaid applications, and guide you step by step through building your service plan. Their team explains which free services you qualify for and makes sure nothing gets missed.
