Health and Disability Waiver in Iowa

Health and Disability Waiver covers in-home and community services only — it does not pay for residential placement in Iowa. The program serves Blind/disabled under 65.

Enrollment and service authorization go through your case manager or support coordinator. They confirm eligibility, authorize the budget, and help select a provider.

Need a Residential Placement Instead?

Health and Disability Waiver does not fund residential placements. In Iowa, residential care can be funded through Elderly Waiver, Intellectual Disability (ID) Waiver, Brain Injury (BI) Waiver, and others — talk to your case manager or support coordinator about switching or adding a program.
