Explore products for seniorsContinuing to live independently at home can become challenging for many seniors as they age. For those who prefer to age at home over moving to a senior living community, in-home care can be a reasonable option. In some cases, even seniors who require regular medical care can live safely at home with the support of home health care services. But the costs of senior care can put a strain on many family budgets. Fortunately, Medicaid has several programs to help eligible seniors pay for home care and home health care services.
