Aging Services Access Points (ASAPs) in Massachusetts
Aging Services Access Points are the non-profit agencies the state designates to assess older adults for in-home services and to manage the state Home Care Program, the Frail Elder Waiver, Meals on Wheels and protective services. Each town is assigned to exactly one ASAP. There is no charge for an assessment.
Who pays
State and federal funds through the Executive Office of Aging & Independence. Home Care Program services are free or on a sliding scale by income; MassHealth members may qualify for the Frail Elder Waiver.
How to choose
There is nothing to choose: call the ASAP that serves the town where the older adult lives and ask for an intake. The ASAP sends a case manager to the home.
ASAP by town
Town pages list every aging services access point that serves the town, sorted by distance. 20 MetroWest towns are live now; the rest of the state is being added.
