How Our Programs Work

At CareSmart, we help individuals and families navigate Georgia’s Medicaid waiver programs so they can receive quality care in the community, rather than in a nursing facility.

We specialize in case management for the Community Care Services Program (CCSP) and the Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment (SOURCE) program. These Medicaid-funded waiver programs support individuals with chronic illnesses, disabilities, or age-related needs who qualify for nursing home-level care but prefer to remain at home.

What We Help With

Through these programs, eligible members may receive:

Personal care and in-home support

Home-delivered meals

Adult day health services

Skilled nursing or therapy

Medical transportation

Respite care for caregivers

Who Qualifies

To qualify, individuals must:

Be eligible for Georgia Medicaid

Have a chronic illness or disability that places them at risk for nursing home placement

Be approved through a level-of-care assessment

Meet financial eligibility requirements (some members may pay a cost share)

How to Get Started

Referrals to these programs are usually submitted through the Area Agency on Aging. Once referred and approved, CareSmart’s case management team works closely with members and their families to develop a care plan, coordinate services, and monitor ongoing needs.
