Who this affects locally

Family Care (with IRIS as the self-directed alternative) (Family Care)
Administered by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, through Aging and Disability Resource Centers for eligibility and managed care organizations for services.
Dementia-specific eligibility
Applicants must be 18 or older, be a frail elder or an adult with a disability, be eligible for Wisconsin Medicaid, and be found functionally eligible through the Long-Term Care Functional Screen, which an ADRC screener completes in a face-to-face interview. The cited page does not describe any dementia-specific eligibility route, so ask the office that administers the programme how a dementia diagnosis is weighed in that assessment.
Asset limits: This state does not publish asset limits on its own program page. Confirm the current figures with the office that administers the program.
What makes WI different: Wisconsin offers a genuine choice of delivery model: Family Care, where an MCO coordinates services, or IRIS (Include, Respect, I Self-Direct), where the participant self-directs their own budget and hires their own workers.
How to apply: Contact the local Aging and Disability Resource Center, which explains the program and completes the Long-Term Care Functional Screen. Once eligible, the member chooses a managed care organization serving their county and enrolls.
