My partner is not eligible for SSI, disability or Medicaid because of immigration status. I will check about Affordable Care Act, but currently we are on employer provided health insurance plan.

I will go through the link you have posed and check the state resources too. Have not heard of personal care assistants before, but will find out more.

You might ask your state's department of human services. If your partner is a legal immigrant they should qualify. Medicaid is a 50:50 federal and state partnership.
