Family Caregiver Pay Rates

Family caregiver pay rates in New York vary based on several factors, including the patient’s Medicaid Long Term Care plan, the patient’s region, and the home care agency managing the case. Each Medicaid plan reimburses agencies at different levels, and each agency sets its own caregiver pay structure based on that reimbursement.

Because of this, hourly rates vary across families. NYC, surrounding counties, and upstate regions may have different ranges, and agencies may offer slightly different rates depending on the program and location.

Once your eligibility form is submitted, our team will explain the current pay structure for your loved one’s specific situation, so you receive accurate, up-to-date information.
