Work Requirements in the Big Beautiful Bill

Medicaid is changing. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll break down what these changes mean for family caregivers, starting with new work requirements.

Aidaly is a licensed Home Health Agency contracted with dozens of Medicaid, Medicare, and Medicare Advantage plans to serve over 8.5 million lives across five states. We don’t rely on waivers or pandemic-era exceptions. Aidaly is building a durable, structural, technically embedded, and vertically integrated solution that will 𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐭.

This wasn't a hard decision. We promised to build something better for everyday people, in every corner of America. We intend to keep that promise. Aidaly trains and employs family caregivers as members of a clinical care team. So when Medicaid asks if someone is working 80 hours a month, we don’t panic. We send a pay stub.

Joining Aidaly doesn’t just mean getting paid. It satisfies real work requirements that protect a caregiver’s own Medicaid eligibility. And it gives family caregivers what they’ve long deserved: a stable job and employment protections.

Work requirements without infrastructure cause confusion around coverage loss, especially for unpaid family caregivers. Aidaly offers an elegant and thoughtful way through. Our systems are already in place: qualification, enrollment, training, visit verification, and clinical supervision.
