North Dakota HHS lists Home and Community-Based Long-Term Care programs for older adults and individuals with physical disabilities, including SPED, Expanded SPED, Medicaid State Plan Personal Care Services, Medicaid Waiver for Home and Community-Based Services, Older Americans Act services, and PACE. The current official page supports HCBS/personal-care service routing, but not the prior self-directed spouse-paid/rate claims.

Questions that decide eligibility
GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:
- 01
Does the person receiving care live in North Dakota?
Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- 02
What counts as a qualifying disability or level of care need, and what documentation shows it?
- 03
Does the VA disability rating meet the program’s minimum (our record lists null%)?
- 04
Do the work hours meet the minimum (our record lists null hours)?
- 05
Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name.
Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
- 06
What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- 07
Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
