Overview
This bill creates a program in New Jersey allowing family members or approved third parties to become certified homemaker-home health aides. These aides would provide assistance to eligible Medicare, Medicaid, and NJ FamilyCare enrollees, primarily seniors aged 65 and older, under the supervision of a registered professional nurse. The program will be funded with increased reimbursement rates for these services, and the state will seek federal approval to cover the costs.
