HD.1110/SD. 1565, 1509, 1405: Spouses as paid caregivers 

AdvocacyLegislation
Written By Emily Combs

Sponsors: Rep James O’Day, Sens. Lovely, Comerford, and Tarr respectively   

These bills are all working towards the same goal: to allow spouses to be authorized to serve as paid caregivers in the MassHealth program for the provision of certain home-based care and services. Other relatives are already permitted to serve as paid caregivers.
