What Is It?

TruCare’s Get Paid to Care program helps family members and close friends turn the care they already provide into real, regular compensation. Through our agency and Pennsylvania’s Community HealthChoices (CHC) Medicaid waiver program, eligible individuals can officially get paid to be a caregiver for someone they love. We provide the training, handle the paperwork, and make sure you feel fully supported from day one.

Who Needs These Solutions?

Our services are designed for families in the greater Philadelphia area who care for:

  • Family members are already providing daily care for a senior parent or loved one at home
  • Individuals who have left work — or reduced their hours — to care for a loved one full time
  • Anyone looking for a meaningful way to get paid for caregiving while supporting a loved one’s independence at home

Call our team today to find out if you qualify. Whether you are just starting to explore your options or have been caregiving for years without compensation, we are here to help.

FAQs

I’m already caring for my parent full-time — can I really get paid for what I’m doing now?

Yes. If your loved one qualifies for Pennsylvania’s Community HealthChoices (CHC) Medicaid waiver program, you may be eligible to get paid to care for a loved one as their officially authorized caregiver.

How do I know if my loved one qualifies for the program?

Eligibility depends on Medicaid status and level of care needs. Our team reviews your situation during a free consultation and helps determine whether you meet CHC waiver requirements.

How long does it take to start getting paid?

Many families begin the enrollment process within 24–48 hours. Once approved and trained, you can officially get paid to be a caregiver.

What if my loved one’s condition changes over time?

Care plans can be adjusted. We stay in contact and update documentation as care needs evolve to ensure services remain appropriate and authorized.

Does TruCare offer paid caregiver programs in my area?

TruCare Home Care supports paid caregivers and their families throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania. We serve families in Reading, Pottstown, Norristown, Lancaster, Allentown, and across Montgomery, Chester, Delaware, Bucks, and Berks counties.

I’m overwhelmed by paperwork — will I have to handle everything myself?

No. Our team manages the Medicaid waiver coordination, documentation, and program verification so you can focus on providing care rather than navigating administrative requirements.
