Enrollment in the CHAMPS System
CHAMPS (Community Health Automated Medicaid Processing System) is Michigan’s required portal for Medicaid providers. The system can be difficult to navigate, and errors can delay approval and payment.
Important:
Caregivers must create their own provider profile in CHAMPS. This process is not simply tied to the person receiving care and must be done correctly.
Family Love Care manages the entire CHAMPS registration from start to finish, including revalidation (typically every 5 years) to prevent payment lapses.

Medicare Does Not Fund the Home Help Program
To qualify, the person receiving services must be enrolled in Michigan Medicaid. If your loved one only has Medicare, they will not be eligible for paid family caregivers through this program.
