Get the Care You Deserve — On Your Terms.
Michigan's Home Help program lets you hire your own caregiver — even a family member — and pay them through Medicaid. MiWay Home Care guides you through every step.
Michigan Home Help Program
What Is the Michigan Home Help Program?
Home Help is Michigan's Medicaid-funded program that pays for personal care services in your own home — and puts you in charge of who provides that care.
State-Funded Personal Care
Home Help is administered by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and covers assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, meal prep, and mobility.
You Choose Your Caregiver
Unlike traditional home care, Home Help lets you self-direct your care. You can hire a family member, friend, or neighbor — someone you already trust — and Medicaid pays them.
No Out-of-Pocket Cost
If you qualify for Michigan Medicaid, Home Help services are fully covered. There are no co-pays or out-of-pocket expenses for eligible participants.
MiWay Makes It Simple
Navigating MDHHS paperwork and enrollment can be overwhelming. MiWay Home Care handles the entire process — from eligibility checks to getting your caregiver paid on time.

Check Your Eligibility
