What does CDCS allow eligible participants to choose in terms of supports?

CDCS gives the participant real control over how their supports are set up. They can decide what kinds of supports they need and how often those supports occur, all within the program’s defined parameters and budget. They also have the power to negotiate the rate with providers and to hire the provider themselves, which means they can choose who delivers the services and how the services are delivered. This level of choice and direct involvement is what makes CDCS different from plans that dictate only certain aspects or that don’t allow the participant to hire or negotiate with providers.
