Cottage Home Care OH LLC helps Ohioans of all ages receive the care they need in the comfort of their own home — through Ohio's Medicaid waiver programs. Compassionate, professional, and person-centered care.
Cottage Home Care OH LLC is certified to support clients across Ohio's three primary Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs.
The Ohio Home Care Waiver (OHCW) is a Medicaid-funded HCBS waiver administered by the Ohio Department of Medicaid. It allows individuals with physical disabilities or unstable medical conditions to receive care at home instead of a nursing facility.
