Questions families ask

What's the phone number for NC Medicaid if I have general questions about applying for my father in Johnston County?

The NC Medicaid Contact Center can be reached at 888-245-0179 for general questions about NC Medicaid programs and eligibility, though the actual application and financial eligibility determination for long-term-care Medicaid is processed through the county DSS — in this case, Johnston County DSS — rather than the contact center itself.

Does Special Assistance pay more for a relative with Alzheimer's in a licensed memory care unit in Wake Forest than for standard adult care home care?

Yes — North Carolina's Special Assistance program applies a separate, higher payment rate for Adult Care Home residents with Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder who reside in a licensed Special Care Unit, compared to the standard SA room-and-board rate for residents in general adult care home settings. Exact current rates should be confirmed with the local county DSS or the NC DHHS Special Assistance Manual, since payment levels change periodically.

Can my father use both VA Aid & Attendance and NC Medicaid at the same time to pay for care near Raleigh?

VA Aid & Attendance is a federal pension add-on, not a North Carolina state program, and it is generally counted as income when NC Medicaid evaluates a long-term-care applicant's financial eligibility — so a veteran may receive VA Aid & Attendance and separately pursue NC Medicaid, but the VA payment itself typically factors into the Medicaid income calculation rather than being ignored or 'stacked' independently. Families should discuss the specific interaction with county DSS or a benefits counselor, since VA and Medicaid rules can interact in ways that affect eligibility for either program.

Does CAP/DA pay for home modifications like a wheelchair ramp for an elderly parent in Holly Springs?

Yes — CAP/DA is NC's Medicaid HCBS waiver for adults needing a nursing-facility level of care who wish to remain at home, and its covered services explicitly include home modifications and equipment (such as ramps, grab bars, or other accessibility changes) alongside in-home aide services, adult day health, meal preparation, respite care, and consumer-directed care options, administered through NC Medicaid with local CAP/DA case management coordinating services by county.
