Assessments, Evaluation and Review Services (AERS) is a Maryland Medicaid program that provides in-home and community-based evaluations for older adults, individuals with disabilities, and children.
Evaluations are conducted by a Registered Nurse and/or Social Worker and focus on each person’s medical, functional, and psychosocial needs. Based on this assessment, the Carroll County AERS team develops a person-centered plan of care designed to support individuals in living as independently as possible in the least restrictive setting. The team also helps connect individuals to appropriate services and determines eligibility for Medicaid programs.
