Who this affects locally
32,761 senior households in Memphis have someone 65 or older living alone - exactly the situation where in-home supervision matters most. With 8,451 residents aged 85 and over, the group at highest risk of dementia, the need for local care is concentrated and growing.
TennCare CHOICES (CHOICES)
Administered by Division of TennCare, delivered through managed care organizations, with Area Agencies on Aging and Disability (AAAD) offices assisting with applications.
Dementia-specific eligibility
Eligibility is based on a Nursing Facility Level of Care (NFLOC) determination evaluating Activities of Daily Living, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living, and cognitive/behavioral factors. This can include Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, but a dementia diagnosis alone does not guarantee an NFLOC designation - Tennessee does not use a separate, lower threshold specifically for dementia.
Asset limits: $2,000 for a single applicant, $3,000 (when both spouses are applying) for a couple.
What makes TN different: CHOICES has three enrollment groups with different services. Group 2 (home- and community-based services) has an active waitlist, so applying as early as possible is recommended.
How to apply: Contact your local Area Agency on Aging and Disability (AAAD) if not already enrolled in TennCare, or call 1-866-836-6678 to be directed to your nearest AAAD. Current TennCare members apply for CHOICES through their assigned health plan. TennCare Connect can also be reached at 1-855-259-0701.
