In the DDA exception, the CSW enters a vendor agreement with which party and is paid by them separately from the DDA?

In this arrangement, the person receiving services uses a Fiscal Employer Agency (FEAgency) to handle employment duties. The CSW signs a vendor agreement with the FEAgency and is paid by the FEAgency, separate from the DDA funds. The DDA provides the funding, but the FEAgency is the employer of record, taking care of payroll, taxes, and compliance while the CSW delivers services to the participant. The participant or family isn’t paying the CSW directly or entering into a vendor agreement with them; that role rests with the FEAgency. This is why the correct answer is the FEAgency.
