Attendant Care Indiana: Get Paid to Care for Your Loved One with Kompassionate Care Services
For many families, caring for a loved one isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a full-time job. Through Indiana’s Medicaid waiver programs, Attendant Care Services make it possible for family members or trusted aides to receive compensation for the hands-on support they provide.
At Kompassionate Care Services, we proudly lead the state of Indiana in caregiver pay rates. Unlike many agencies, we pay 70% of the Medicaid reimbursement directly to the caregiver—that’s among the highest in Indiana. For a dedicated caregiver, this can amount to close to $50,000 per year. In many cases, this income is tax free, making it an even greater support for families who want to keep care at home.
What Is Attendant Care?
Attendant Care (often called ATTC under Indiana Medicaid waivers) covers hands-on, non-medical assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, and mobility, as well as support with light household tasks, meal preparation, and reminders.
This service allows people with significant care needs to remain in their homes and communities, while ensuring caregivers are recognized and compensated for their work.
Who Can Be a Paid Caregiver Under Attendant Care Indiana?
To qualify, caregivers must:
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Be physically and mentally capable of providing care
- Pass a criminal background check
- Work through a certified provider agency like Kompassionate Care Services
Family members may qualify. Many Indiana residents are especially interested in becoming paid family caregivers through Attendant Care. For example, adult children, siblings, or other relatives often provide this support and can receive compensation.
Important Note on Exclusions
- Spouses and parents of minor children currently cannot be paid caregivers under Attendant Care.
- However, Kompassionate Care Services also supports other Indiana Medicaid waiver programs that may allow family caregivers to be compensated in different ways. One important option is Structured Family Caregiving (SFC), which may apply to those excluded from ATTC. (We’ll provide a direct link here for you.)
