Structured Family Care is a caregiving service arrangement in which a Medicaid Waiver patient lives together with a caregiver who provides daily care and support to the patient based on the patient daily care needs and activities of daily living. This service arrangement allows the patient to stay in the comforts of their home while receiving care as an alternative to a nursing home facility.
