If an approved provider who is compensated by the Department of Human Services for providing in-home care to a recipient of public assistance or medical assistance marries the recipient, the department shall consider the care provided as compensable even though provided by a spouse. The standard of compensation under this section shall be the same as the standard applied for in-home care provided by an approved provider not residing in the home of the recipient. [1987 c.629 § 2; 2001 c.900 § 94; 2013 c.688 § 61]
