Featured Services
Managed Enrollment For Home- and Community-based Programs - We closely monitor enrollments and dis-enrollments from our PASSPORT, Assisted Living and PACE programs. Due to budget constraints, we have had to reduce the number of new enrollments per month and a wait list has formed. We encourage consumers who need these services to apply for them and get on the wait list. For most, the wait period is about one week.

Golden Buckeye Card Program - More than two million Ohioans are eligible for the Golden Buckeye card, which is honored at 20,000 businesses statewide and has save cardholders an estimated $2 billion since 1976. All Ohioans age 60 or older, as well as adults age 18-59 who have disabilities as defined by Social Security, are eligible for a free Golden Buckeye Card.
Assisted Living Waiver Program - This new program provides another option for Ohioans on Medicaid who need long-term care, but don't require the more intensive, around-the-clock services available in an nursing home.
Long-term Care Ombudsman Programs - Ohio’s Office of the State Long-term Care Ombudsman advocates for people receiving home care, assisted living and nursing home care. Paid and volunteer staff work to resolve complaints about services, help people select a provider and offer information about benefits and consumer rights.
