Clear Pricing, Flexible Options

We keep costs simple, transparent, and tailored to your situation—no surprises.

  • Straightforward hourly rates & flexible schedules.  
     You choose the days and times. Need to add a morning visit next week or pause after a hospital stay? We adjust. We’ll also explain any weekend/holiday differentials up front so everything is clear.
  • No long-term contracts or hidden fees.  
     Start with the hours you need. If your plan changes, your pricing won’t jump unexpectedly—any rate differences (like overnights or live-in) are discussed and approved before we schedule.
  • Private Pay with easy billing.  
     Simple invoices, itemized by date, hours, and caregiver. Pay online or by check—whatever’s easier. We can share a sample weekly schedule with estimated hours so you can see the likely cost before you decide.
  • Long-Term Care Insurance (LTCI) support.  
     We help verify benefits, gather required documentation, and submit claim forms and care notes. If your policy allows, we can coordinate recurring submissions so reimbursement is smoother and on time.
  • Guidance on Veterans’ benefits.  
     If you may qualify (e.g., Aid & Attendance), we’ll point you to the right forms and accredited resources, provide the care documentation they request, and align your schedule with program rules.
  • NJ Medicaid/MLTSS pathways.  
     Every situation is different. We’ll explain typical steps, what paperwork agencies ask for, and how our services can coordinate with managed care plans if you become eligible.
  • Clear cancellations & minimums.  
     We’ll walk through minimum shift lengths and cancellation windows at the start—so you know exactly how to avoid extra charges and how to reschedule when life happens.
  • Regular check-ins to match needs and budget.  
     If care needs grow (or lessen), we’ll suggest right-sized options—like consolidating visits, shifting tasks into shorter blocks, or planning a temporary ramp-up after a hospital discharge.

Want numbers you can plan around?  
Ask for a personalized estimate with a sample weekly schedule. You’ll see hours, tasks, and the expected monthly range—plain and simple.
