What Is the Aged and Disabled Waiver in Indiana?
The Aged and Disabled (A&D) Waiver is a Medicaid program in Indiana that allows seniors and individuals with disabilities to receive long-term care in their homes or community settings instead of in institutions. As of 2024, Indiana has restructured its waiver programs into two primary options:
- Health and Wellness Waiver: For individuals aged 59 and younger.
- Indiana PathWays for Aging Waiver: For individuals aged 60 and older.
These waivers offer services designed to support independence, health, and quality of life.

Participants in these programs can access a range of services, including:
- Homemaker Services: Support with cleaning, meal preparation, and laundry.
- Personal Care Assistance: Help with bathing, dressing, and grooming.
- Respite Care: Temporary relief for primary caregivers.
- Adult Day Services: Social and recreational programs in a supervised setting.
