CDS offers you the opportunity to direct your own attendant care (and in some programs nursing and therapies).
You become the employer and are responsible for recruiting, training, managing and firing your attendants.
You choose a FMS Agency, like us, to provide you with initial training on your responsibilities and on being an employer. We continue to give you ongoing support. We do your payroll, file federal and state employer taxes for you, and do your quarterly and annual employer tax returns. We also report to you and your case manager or service coordinator on a quarterly basis letting you know what hours you have used.
We support the CDS option in all of Texas’ long term care programs.
Individuals with Disabilities or the Elderly
We provide comprehensive support for all Medicaid Long Term Services and Supports Programs throughout the state of Texas, as well as the Veteran Directed Home and Community Based Services Program in two specific locations. For individuals participating in Consumer Directed Services (CDS), there is the option to self-direct and manage all or some of their services, offering greater control and personalization of their care.
