Who can enroll in LTC?
Who can enroll in LTC?
You may qualify for LTC services if you live in Florida and need a higher level of care. You can get LTC benefits from the comfort of your home or assisted living center. You don’t need to live in a nursing home or other facility. Talk with your case manager about the services you may be able to receive.
To qualify for LTC services, you must:
- Be 18 years or older
- Be eligible for Medicaid
- Be screened for LTC eligibility
- Need long-term services and support and/or a nursing home level of care
- Meet hospital level of care if you have cystic fibrosis
If you think you need or qualify for LTC benefits, the first step is to enroll in Medicaid. After you’ve been approved for Medicaid, the state will send you a letter letting you know if you’ve been approved for LTC benefits.
