Consumer Directed CDPAP

CDPAP: Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program
Finding the right care for the people you care for most, the CDPAP program is a self-directed home-care program available to Medicaid-eligible consumers in need of home-care services and capable of directing their own care. Once your eligibility is determined, as well as the type and amount of services needed, the next step will be to locate a Personal Assistant(s) (PA). The PAs can be virtually anyone the consumer wants: a friend, neighbor, aide or even a family member. PAs do not have to be HHA-certified. A parent, spouse, or designated representative is not eligible for PA status. Once you have a designated PA, he/she enrolls with us.

CDPAP Benefits
The CDPAP program enables individuals to embrace independence by controlling their own care. The personal assistant you hire can help you with:

If you or a family member is eligible and in need of someone to provide assistance with daily living tasks, one of the Outreach Specialists at Marquis Home Care can help you get enrolled in CDPAP today.
