Maryland Home Care Transfer Program
Same care.
Same caregiver.
Better support.
If you're currently getting paid — or paying a caregiver — through Maryland's Home and Community-Based Options Waiver/SOAR or Community Options Waiver programs and your agency isn't showing up for you, switching to Eminence keeps everything that matters and fixes what doesn't.
Serving families in:

Benefits
A better experience, not a different program.
Switching to Eminence keeps your Maryland CFC, CPAS, or CO benefits exactly as they are — it just puts a more responsive team behind them.
Get paid on time, every time, every week
No more chasing a paycheck. Payroll runs on a consistent, predictable schedule with direct deposit.
Same caregiver, same care recipient
The person providing care and the person receiving it don't change — only the agency behind them does.
Local support from a Maryland team
A real person who knows your case guides the transfer and stays reachable afterward — every step.
Support across CFC, CPAS & CO
Whether your loved one is on CFC, CPAS, or the Community Options (CO) Waiver, our team knows the program and manages the transfer correctly the first time.
Eligibility
You may qualify to switch if your current setup already works.
If you're already approved under Maryland's program, switching agencies is usually simpler than families expect.
- You or your loved one is currently enrolled in Maryland's Home and Community-Based Services (CFC/CPAS) or Community Options Waiver with another agency
- You have an approved plan of service already in place
- Care is provided in the home, not a facility
- Your current agency isn't giving you the pay reliability or support you expect

Families First
Real stories from Maryland families.
Families who've made the switch talk about what changed — and what stayed the same.
"My mother's caregiver went two pay periods without being paid on time by our old agency. Since switching to Eminence, the deposit hits like clockwork and I don't have to call and ask where it is."
Denise H.
Baltimore City, MD
"I was nervous the switch would mean starting over, but nothing changed for my dad — same caregiver, same schedule. The only difference is someone actually answers the phone now."
Marcus T.
Silver Spring, MD
"Our old agency felt like a call center. With Eminence I have one coordinator who knows our case and checks in without me having to chase her down."

FAQ
Answers to common transfer questions.
No. Your eligibility belongs to you, not your current agency. Switching to Eminence does not require reapplying — you keep your approved plan of service, and only the agency managing payroll and support changes.
Our goal is zero disruption. We coordinate directly with your current agency and Support Planner so care continues on schedule and payroll doesn't miss a pay period. We'll give you the exact timeline for your situation up front.
No. Under Maryland's self-directed model, you choose your caregiver, and that doesn't change when you switch. The same family member or friend can keep providing care — Eminence simply takes over managing pay and paperwork.
No — we handle that. We will never contact your current agency without your permission. Once you're ready, our team manages the notification and paperwork directly with your Support Planner.
