Long-Term Care

Does Medicaid cover long term care in Colorado?

Yes, Medicaid does cover long-term care services for eligible individuals in Colorado. Colorado Medicaid provides coverage for long-term care services including nursing home care, home health care, and other services that help individuals with chronic health conditions or disabilities live as independently as possible.

To be eligible for Medicaid long-term care coverage in Colorado, an individual must meet certain income and asset requirements, as well as medical criteria. In addition, Colorado Medicaid offers a Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver program, which provides long-term care services to eligible individuals who wish to receive care in their own homes or community settings rather than in a nursing home.

The specific long-term care services covered by Colorado Medicaid, as well as the eligibility requirements, may vary depending on an individual’s specific circumstances. It’s important to consult with a Medicaid expert or healthcare professional to determine the coverage options available for long-term care services in Colorado.
