The Personal Preference Program (PPP) offers individuals with Medicaid insurance, who qualify for Personal Care Assistant Services, a way to direct and manage a monthly budget to receive counseling services in place of a traditional care assistant service provided through an agency. The family must be NJ Family Care Plan A eligible.
This program gives caregivers and caretakers more agency over the care of their loved ones. Through the PPP, you can direct and manage activities such as bathing, dressing, and feeding your loved one according to your preference by choosing who can come and take care of your loved one.
Your Managed Care Organization (MCO) such as Aetna, Amerigroup, Horizon, United Healthcare Community Plan, or Wellcare are responsible for enrolling, approving, and authorizing the number of Medicaid PCA hours you are eligible to receive per month.
