Ability Resources provides Case Management services for individuals enrolled in the ADvantage Program.

What is ADvantage?

The ADvantage Program is a Medicaid-funded program administered by the Oklahoma Department of Human Services Aging Services Division. The program serves seniors age 65 and older and adults with physical disabilities age 21 and older. It allows individuals who are nursing home level of care and Medicaid eligible to receive services while remaining in their homes.

Would I qualify?

In order to qualify for the ADvantage program, you must meet both financial and medical qualifications. Financial qualifications are determined by a case worker at the local Oklahoma Department of Human Services Center. To meet medical qualifications, you must meet nursing home level of care, which is determined by a nurse at the local Oklahoma Department of Human Services Center.

Some of the services available through the ADvantage program include:

Case Management Personal Care Home Delivered Meals Prescriptions Specialized Medical Equipment and Supplies Skilled Nursing

The ADvantage program does not provide 24-hour care and you must be able to remain safely in your home. For many, ADvantage is a good alternative to other long-term care options like nursing homes.
