Medicaid Meal Waivers
What is the Medicaid Meal Waiver?
The Medicaid waiver allows states to provide a collection of home services including home delivered meals. The Medicaid waiver is a State-Federal partnership that provides services to seniors and people with disabilities. The Federal government provides broad guidelines which allow each state to establish their own standard of eligibility and scope of services. The purpose of the waiver program is to provide a comprehensive array of services to people with the goal of keeping them living independently at home who would otherwise be in a hospital or care facility.
What is the process to receive home-delivered meals?
Home-delivered meals are reimbursed through the Medicaid waiver program and thus are authorized by Medicaid. A Medicaid recipient must first contact their Medicaid agency or Medicaid representative and request a meal waiver application. Once the completed application is returned to Medicaid, a subsequent evaluation will be scheduled to determine eligibility. Each eligible participant is guaranteed under the Medicaid provision of “freedom of choice” to specify the provider of their choice for the services they would prefer.
What is the process once a client is approved?
Following the meal waiver approval, Medicaid will issue an authorization directly to the meal provider of the participant’s choice. The authorization will specify the number of meals the participant is approved to receive each month. It is the responsibility of the provider to contact each participant to begin and administer the service. This may take several weeks to process and complete.
What are the meal choices?
We offer an extensive menu of breakfast, lunch, and dinner choices to match any dietary restriction and pallet. We offer over 30 different entrees at one time. Our menu changes every month so you always have new options to order from.

Clean Eatz Kitchen FAQs
Anything. All of our meals are under 600 calories and are intended to help you portion-control with a healthy balance of fats, carbohydrates, and protein. We do not recommend eating only Clean Eatz meals as your diet as variety is an important factor in long-term adherance to a healthy lifestyle.
We sell frozen, pre-cooked healthy meals. Ordering off our menu, we will send those entrees to your house for you to heat (in the microwave) and eat.
No. In order to keep cost low, we make our food in large batches. This prevents us from making modifications to individual meals such as "no onions". If you need customized meal plans, we recommend visiting one of our local stores who can make exact specifications to meet your diet.
No. While some of our ingredients include these titles. We do not use these buzzwords to sell our food. In our experience, our industry misleads consumers by using trendy adjectives (Organic, All-Natural, Pasture-Raised, Grass-Fed, Non-GMO, Antibiotic Free) to sell more of their products. Some of these adjectives are not defined or strictly-enforced by the USDA or FDA, allowing producers to slap labels on their food that may or may not have any truthful substance. In-season, we are able to obtain local or organic vegetables to use in our products but out-of-season we have to be more flexible to keep our food priced affordably. We believe in eating food in balanced proportions, in its most natural state and that's what we cook for you.
Our allergen information is listed HERE. Please be advised that all of our food is made on shared equipment in the same facility. While we take steps to sanitize between allergens, cross-contamination is likely. Also note that just because an allergen is not on our current menu, it does not mean it is not present in our facility.
