AN ACT COMPENSATING SPOUSES FOR STATE-FUNDED HOME CARE.

Summary

The measure creates a new state‑funded portion of Connecticut's home‑care program and allows spouses or other personal‑care helpers to receive payment for their services. It applies to seniors 65 and older who are not on Medicaid but meet income and asset limits, and it sets cost‑sharing rules for participants. The goal is to support seniors who might otherwise be placed in a nursing home and to recognize family caregivers.
