Additional IHSS hours may be authorized under a Home & Community Based Waiver (HCBS) for persons who would otherwise qualify for care in a nursing facility or subacute nursing facility. If you qualify, you can receive more IHSS hours even if you are already receiving the maximum 283 per month to reduce your unmet need. Also, you do not need to be authorized for the maximum amount of hours (195 or 283) in order to receive WPCS.
