Sometimes Medical Assistance, Medicare and Private Insurance will pay for Personal Care Services.  Otherwise, a sliding fee scale based on your income may be used to determine the price of Personal Care Services.  In addition, help from the Commission on Aging is available for eligible patients.  People eligible for COP/CIP through the Department of Human Services may also be eligible for Personal Care Services free of charge.

To find out if Personal Care is right for you, call the Health Department at (608) 776-4895.
