Questions families ask

What exactly does the CAP/DA Medicaid waiver cover for a parent aging in place in Apex?

The Community Alternatives Program for Disabled Adults (CAP/DA) is North Carolina's Medicaid 1915(c) home- and community-based services waiver for adults 18+ who need a nursing-facility level of care but want to remain at home. It covers up to 18 in-home and community-based services, including adult day health, in-home aide services, home modifications and equipment, meal preparation, respite care, personal emergency response systems, and consumer-directed care that lets the beneficiary hire and supervise their own caregiver.

How do I actually apply for CAP/DA if my mother lives in Raleigh?

Apply for long-term-care Medicaid generally through Wake County's Department of Social Services, and apply for CAP/DA specifically by contacting a local CAP/DA case management entity serving Wake County; the CAP/DA program is administered overall by the NC Division of Health Benefits/NC Medicaid within NCDHHS. The NC Medicaid Contact Center (888-245-0179) can help direct families to the correct local starting point.

Is CAP/DA the same thing as Medicaid paying for assisted living in Wake County?

No. CAP/DA is a home- and community-based waiver that serves people living in their own home, not in a licensed adult care home or assisted living facility, so it does not pay for assisted living room and board or services. North Carolina has no Medicaid waiver dedicated to assisted living; room and board there is instead covered through the non-Medicaid State/County Special Assistance program.
