How much can you earn?
Caregivers earn $18 per hourthrough Michigan Medicaid as of January 1, 2026. Authorized hours are set by an MDHHS assessment based on the care recipient's needs.
Hours are determined by MDHHS based on assessed care needs. The maximum is 179.9 hours per month.
Who qualifies as a paid caregiver?
- You're a Michigan resident and 18 or older
- The person needing care is on Michigan Medicaid (often called Healthy Michigan or traditional Medicaid)
- They need help with daily activities — bathing, dressing, mobility, eating, toileting, or meal prep
- You're not their spouse (federal Medicaid rules — but adult children, siblings, friends, neighbors, and other relatives qualify)
