Care Services Waivers
Virginia’s Medicaid waivers provide home and community-based support and services for children and adults with varying needs.
Tailored services are available based on specific needs and eligibility criteria. For those interested in Developmental Disability waivers, the initial step involves contacting the local Community Services Board. On the other hand, individuals looking to apply for the CCC Plus waiver need to undergo a LTSS Screening conducted by their local Department of Social Services to ensure Medicaid eligibility for waiver services.
To kick off the process, individuals can submit a Medicaid application through CommonHelp.virginia.gov, the Cover Virginia Call Center, or their local Department of Social Services office. Upon Medicaid approval and completion of the CCC Plus waiver screening, individuals can access the desired waiver services, with the screening team’s support in identifying providers in their vicinity.
These crucial steps play a significant role in granting eligible Virginians access to crucial in-home care services, fostering independence, enhancing quality of life, and alleviating financial burdens.
