Background
DHS will transition PCA and CSG programs to a CFSS model, starting in 2023. The federal Affordable Care Act allowed DHS to make changes to some of its programs to give the people we serve more choice and control in how they use services. DHS has submitted a request to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for approval of the CFSS program. We are waiting for a response from the agency to begin the changeover.
