Do you receive funding from the current self-managed care program but looking for the option to direct bill your invoice? Alternatively, do you receive home care through AHS and you are considering the option to choose your own home care service provider but need some extra funding to help support the cost?
As Alberta residents you should be able to have the choice to hire your own care based on your personal care needs without worrying about the cost. Thankfully Alberta Health Services has a few initiatives created to offer financial assistance to help you get the care you need. Speak to an AHS Case Manager or representative in home care to talk about what options are available for you.
Our team of skilled home care professionals are officially approved providers of the new Client Directed Home Care program and can directly bill Alberta Health Services (AHS) on your behalf through Alberta Blue Cross.
