Eligibility for CDPAP payments
“Am I eligible to be a paid caregiver?”
You are a candidate if you are:
- 18 years or older
- Legally allowed to work in the United States
- Capable of providing care for another
I’m an entrepreneur. Being there for my mom did not allow me to generate the income I needed, so getting financial assistance while taking care of her is a win-win.
I was in between jobs, looking for a new one. I thought: ‘What’s going to happen to my mom while I️’m at work all day? When I told her I’d be caring for her everyday, her face lit up. It was a thrilling moment for me.
We brought in a couple of aides for my mother, but I could tell she wasn’t happy. Now I get to care for Mom daily — and she’s smiling and laughing. I feel really good, knowing she’s getting stronger each day.
My father's illness required me to leave my professional job. It was reassuring to know that I can care for my father and get compensated for it.

Tired of filling out papers by hand? Tired of dropping off timesheets? Tired of dealing with mistakes — then waiting weeks for corrected payments to arrive?
With FreedomCare CDPAP, caregivers enjoy a smarter payment system that gives
weekly automated compensation, painlessly and fast.
Using our custom app, caregivers clock in and out with the touch of a button.
Caregivers watch the money appear in their accounts every Friday. (No bank account? They’ll get paid via free pay card or check.)
Caregivers deserve to get paid with MAXIMUM ease and MINIMUM stress. That’s why every person who signs up with FreedomCare gets a personal coordinator assigned to their case. Someone who’s there to walk you — and your caregiver — through every step,
and resolve any hitches along the way.
Our average wait time is 7 seconds. That means you’re guaranteed a friendly, professional, and helpful response anytime you call our office. If your assigned coordinator is unavailable, you’ll get the help of a back-up staff member.
Want a hassle-free process and professional coordinators? You’re in the right place. Our clients consistently report that their biggest surprise is “how fast and smooth it was to sign up.”

Got a question or concern? You’ll get your coordinator on the phone immediately. We think issues should be resolved, pronto. It’s that simple.
Life can be tough. You need to be around people who are just plain nice. Our staff members are known to make happy birthday calls, well-wishes, or simply drop off your caregiver’s check if they need it now.
