\nHome Care is one of the essential services Provided by Medicaid, CO
\n<\/h2>
\n

Through <\/span>Prior Authorization Requests (PAR)<\/span> Medicaid recipients are provided Medicaid benefits that include home care services like meal preparation, showing assistance, light housekeeping, laundry and more. Health First Colorado requires that Medicaid recipients receive a waiver for homemaker (companion\/personal care) which covers health maintenance activities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

It also covers Remote Support, also known as Remote Patient Monitoring<\/a>, which ComForCare is able to provide. Remote support provided in combination with home care provides you 24\/7 coverage with no out of pocket expense to you.<\/span><\/p>

That means more support, more access to providers, and peace of mind knowing you never have to be alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
