Paying for care

Quality care should be affordable.

Many of our clients pay $0 out of pocket. We accept Medicaid, long-term care insurance, CareScout, and VA benefits — and we'll help you navigate the paperwork.

Not sure what you qualify for?

A 15-minute call is usually enough to know. We'll walk you through coverage, eligibility, and next steps — at no charge.

Does Medicaid actually pay for in-home care in Texas?

Yes. Through programs like STAR+PLUS and Community-Based Alternatives, Texas Medicaid covers personal attendant services, companionship, and other non-medical care at home for qualifying adults. We help families through the application end-to-end.

How quickly can care really start?

For private pay and most insurance situations, care begins within 24 hours of your free assessment. Medicaid-funded care can take a little longer because of state approval, but we get you started on private support immediately if needed.

Do you have a minimum number of hours?

We accept short-shift assignments and respite stays. Most families start at 4 hours per visit, but we'll work with whatever schedule keeps your loved one safe.

What areas do you serve?

Greater Houston, the Galleria, Bellaire, River Oaks, West University, Memorial, Sugar Land, Missouri City, Pearland, Katy, and surrounding Harris & Fort Bend county neighborhoods. Call us to confirm your zip code.

I feel so fortunate to have found Loving Arms. Whenever I am left at the last minute with no one to take care of my mother, who needs round-the-clock care, Loving Arms steps in every time.

They helped us get free support through Medicaid, and their caregiver has been like family. My dad gets help with meals and companionship every day. Couldn't ask for better care.

Team Tamara has gone over and beyond for my 80-year-old dad for a year now. The team truly cares and even informs me of his good and bad days. I'm able to have peace of mind that my heart — my father — is living his best life.

The service was phenomenal. Loving Arms literally wrapped its arms around me — pick-up at 4 am, emotional support, safe driving, pharmacy pick up. My surgery experience was exceptional.

They have helped build up my confidence and gave me my independence back since my second stroke. I may not be where I want to be, but I'm not where I used to be — thanks to the staff at Loving Arms.
