Questions Cleveland families ask

How does Ohio's Assisted Living Waiver work, and does it cover the full monthly bill?

The Assisted Living Waiver, administered by the Ohio Department of Aging through PASSPORT Administrative Agencies, pays for personal care and supportive services delivered inside a licensed Residential Care Facility for Medicaid-eligible adults 21 and older with a hands-on ADL need. It does not cover room and board; the resident pays that directly to the facility, capped at the SSI federal benefit rate minus a $50 personal needs allowance.

What is PASSPORT and how is it different from the Assisted Living Waiver?

PASSPORT is Ohio's flagship home and community-based Medicaid waiver, delivered through Area Agencies on Aging, designed to keep Medicaid-eligible seniors who need nursing-facility level of care living at home rather than in an institution. It covers personal care, home-delivered meals, adult day care, minor home modifications, medical transportation, and, as of October 2024, Structured Family Caregiving. Like the Assisted Living Waiver, it never pays for room and board, since it's strictly an in-home program.

What is MyCare Ohio and which Cleveland-area counties does it cover?

MyCare Ohio is a managed care demonstration for Ohioans eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, coordinating medical care, behavioral health, and long-term services and supports through a single plan. Its Northeast Ohio region covers all of Cuyahoga, Lake, Lorain, Medina, and Geauga counties, plus Summit and Portage counties. As of mid-2026 Ohio was mid-transition on a restructuring called Next Generation MyCare, so families should confirm current plan and county status directly with the Ohio Department of Medicaid.
