A straightforward guide to a confusing program
CarePay Michigan is an independent information and referral resource for families exploring Michigan’s Home Help program, with a focus on Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties.
Understand the program before choosing a next step
Our guides explain caregiver choice, assessment, enrollment, and pay terminology. MDHHS determines Home Help eligibility and authorized care. CarePay Michigan does not process Medicaid applications or act for the State of Michigan.
How referrals relate to the information
CarePay Michigan may receive compensation for agency referrals. The guides and inquiry form are free to use. Confirm the identity, availability, qualifications, and written terms of any agency you consider.
Sources and corrections
The October 2026 review links official sources for the changed guidance and removes unsupported pay promises. Program details can change, and individual decisions belong to the responsible public agency or health plan. Start with MDHHS Home Help information.
The new guides were prepared with AI assistance and checked against the linked public sources. They do not claim a clinical, legal, or benefits-specialist review. Scenarios labeled illustrative are preparation tools, not accounts of CarePay clients.
