Structured Family Caregiver Waiver (SFCW)

Structured Family Caregiver Waiver (SFCW)

The Structured Family Caregiver Waiver (SFCW) is a Missouri Medicaid program that allows family members including spouses and close friends to provide paid, in-home care for loved ones living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia.


Similar to Consumer Directed Services, this program is specifically designed to support individuals with dementia-related conditions. One of its key benefits is that it allows caregivers who live in the same household as the participant to receive compensation for delivering daily care, supervision, and companionship in a safe, familiar home environment.


At PSG Home Health Care, we help families navigate the SFCW program and ensure caregivers receive the support they need while delivering high-quality care.

Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for the Structured Family Caregiver Waiver, participants must:



  • Reside in Missouri and have active Missouri Medicaid
  • Be 21 years of age or older at the time of enrollment
  • Have a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia disorder
  • Live full-time in the same household as their primary caregiver
  • Require a Nursing Facility Level of Care (LOC)

Why Choose SFCW?

  • Stay at home in a comfortable, familiar environment
  • Receive care from someone you know and trust
  • Support for caregivers providing consistent daily assistance
  • Financial compensation for eligible family caregivers
