This form is a sample of an agreement between an elderly or disabled client and a Caregiver who operates as an independent contractor and provides personnel to assist Client to live at home and to have as much control over the home environment and life as possible under the circumstances. Caregiver's personnel also assist Client with the activities of daily living, scheduling medication, assistance with mobility, accompanying Client on errands and appointments, and such other services as agreed between Client and Caregiver.
In this agreement, Client waives damages for simple negligence of Caregiver, but not gross negligence or misconduct that is intentional or criminal in nature. Courts generally will not enforce waivers of this type of misconduct since such a waiver would be deemed to be against public policy because it would encourage dangerous and illegal behavior.

States are required by federal law to approve or deny Medicaid applications within 45 days, or 90 days for applications that require a disability determination. However, data we've compiled from more than 500 of our clients nationwide show that states take longer than 45 days to respond.
The law requires the State to process medical applications as follows: • 60 days - Medical assistance for persons requiring a disability determination. 45 days - Medical assistance for all others.
If you aren't sure if your Medicaid coverage has been approved yet or if it is still active, you can check Manage My Case or call the state's Automated Voice Recognition System (AVRS) at 1-855-828-4995 with your Recipient Identification Number (RIN).
