Amelia Home Care Expands Access To Essential Pediatric Services In The Bronx

In the face of recent national-level changes to healthcare funding programs, Amelia Home Care is attempting to expand access to pediatric home care services in the Bronx.

Brooklyn, United States, April 2, 2025 -- Since the start of 2025, government health programs have already undergone significant adjustments, with recent funding cuts signaling continued shifts in healthcare accessibility. However, in spite of this, private healthcare providers such as Amelia Home Care are exploring strategies to expand access to essential pediatric care programs in their respective communities, using strategies and resources that could provide a model for other regions experiencing similar demand.

Amelia Home Care has served the greater New York City area for decades, adapting to evolving healthcare policies that impact home care affordability. As they explained recently, Medicare and Medicaid still cover home care programs like the ones they provide, and even as funding for those programs is threatened, families may still qualify for full coverage; they may also be able to take advantage of programs at a state level to cover remaining costs.

The population of school-age children living with disabilities in New York City has risen beyond 400,000 in recent years. As funding shifts, home care providers are working to ensure families remain informed about their eligibility for Medicaid-covered services.

As it happens, New York has the highest per-capita Medicaid spending in the country, ranking second only to California in total Medicaid expenditures. As federal funding adjustments take effect, it remains uncertain how coverage will be impacted; however, state-level spending trends suggest that many families may continue to receive support.

Recent studies have shown that live-in care services may be effective at significantly improving outcomes for children with developmental disabilities. Of the 11 million children in the country who have been diagnosed with severe disability, around half now have at least 5 hours of daily access to live-in care services.

The primary benefits of these services come from the fact that children with disabilities may often find unfamiliar environments—especially medical settings—to be stressful. Home care offers an alternative that allows children with disabilities to remain comfortable, even while receiving medical treatment or intensive therapies.

Despite these clear benefits, home care programs are becoming more expensive and less accessible for many families who need them. As such, home care service providers continue their efforts to inform families about financial assistance initiatives and raise awareness of Medicaid coverage throughout 2025.

A spokesperson for Amelia Home Care explained how they specifically are approaching the issue of accessibility:

“Starting pediatric home care can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. At Amelia Home Care, we simplify the process by offering step-by-step guidance from the initial consultation to ongoing care. To begin, families typically need to provide medical documentation, and we work with healthcare providers to ensure a seamless transition from hospital to home.”

As of early 2025, the process of applying for care remains relatively straightforward. Those interested in taking advantage of these programs will first need to provide medical documentation of their child’s condition, including a detailed account of treatment requirements and medication.

Amelia Home Care is a long-time provider of managed elder and pediatric care services in New York. The company was founded by experienced healthcare professionals, and in the years since its formation, has offered direct support to thousands of families in need.
