Trusted Choice Homecare serving families caring for loved ones across New York State with CDPAP. CDPAP stands for the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program. This New York State Medicaid program allows chronically ill or physically disabled consumers who need help with everyday activities or skilled nursing to hire their home care assistants.
Consumers can choose their caregivers, who may or may not be family members or friends. However, the consumer or his or her representative assumes the responsibility for training, supervising, and terminating the caregivers. The CDPAP may cover services typically provided by a personal care attendant, home health care aide, or a nurse, known as Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Services or CDPAS.

Trusted Choice Homecare has been operating as a Fiscal Intermediary (FI) for New York State's Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Services (CDPAS) program since November of 2016. Trusted covers all of New York State, works with most insurance providers, and has direct relationships with local Departments of Social Services.
The Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) is part of the Medicaid plans in New York that focuses on consumer direction. Based on self-direction, the concept gives people with chronic illnesses or physical disabilities a more significant role in their home care. The CDPAP is for people covered by Medicaid who need personal assistance with everyday activities of daily living.
When people become sick, most tend to wait until they become extremely ill to go to the doctor or hospital. When people hold off on making an appointment to see a doctor, it isn't because they are afraid of doctors, it is because they are afraid of the bill they will be facing once the visit is over.
