What Is VA Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care?
Part of the VA's Home and Community Based Services
The VA Homemaker and Home Health Aide (H/HHA) program provides in-home support for veterans who need help with everyday activities due to illness, injury, or age-related challenges. Rather than moving to a facility, veterans receive professional assistance right where they are most comfortable — at home.
This service is part of the VA's Home and Community Based Services and can be used as a standalone program or alongside other VA benefits like Respite Care, Skilled Home Health Services, or the V-PACT post-acute care transition program.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about VA Homemaker and Home Health Aide care in Michigan
In most cases, yes. The VA covers the cost of homemaker and home health aide services. Depending on your VA priority group, there may be a small copay — your VA social worker can confirm your specific situation.
Yes. Once your VA care team approves homemaker or home health aide services, you can request Care Plan Inc as your preferred VA-approved provider. We coordinate directly with your VA social worker to get started.
The frequency and duration of care visits depend on your VA authorization, which is based on your medical and personal care needs. Your VA care team sets the approved hours, and we work within that schedule to provide consistent, reliable support.
No. The Homemaker and Home Health Aide program is a separate VA benefit. It provides direct, VA-funded in-home caregiving services — not a pension benefit like Aid and Attendance. Some veterans may qualify for both programs simultaneously.
Our caregivers assist with activities of daily living including bathing, grooming, dressing, mobility support, meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, medication reminders, and companionship — all designed to help veterans remain independent at home.
Yes. Many families use VA-authorized hours as a foundation and add private-pay hours through Care Plan Inc when additional support is needed — evenings, weekends, or simply more time with a trusted caregiver.
Contact your VA primary care provider or social worker and ask about Homemaker and Home Health Aide services. Once approved, request Care Plan Inc as your provider — or reach out to our team and we'll help guide you through the process.
H/HHA care provides ongoing daily living support for the veteran. Respite Care is designed to give the veteran's family caregiver a temporary break. Both are VA-funded programs, and many families use them together. Learn more about our full VA Home Care services.
