The Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program is a New York State Medicaid Plan which allows consumers to hire family, friends or the Personal Assistant (PA) of their choice to provide services for help with activities of daily living (ADL). Recipients have the flexibility and freedom in choosing their own caregivers! <\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Recipients must be able and willing to make informed choices regarding the management of the services they receive or have a legal guardian or designated relative or other adult able and willing to help make informed choices.<\/p> The consumer or designee must also be responsible for recruiting, hiring, training, supervising and terminating caregivers, and must arrange for back-up coverage, when necessary, arrange and coordinate other services; and keep payroll records.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Before you can receive services, your doctor must send a completed Physician\u2019s Order for Services form to the local department of social services, which then completes a social and nursing assessment. A nurse assessor then determines whether the recipient can appropriately participate in CDPAP, and recommends the amount, frequency and duration of services.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\tCDPAP Program Requirements<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
