New York bill introduced proposing new CDPAP compromise
State lawmakers introduced a new bill this week to expand the companies that oversee a $9 billion Medicaid program that enables disabled or elderly New Yorkers to choose their home caregiver.
State Senate Health Committee Chair Gustavo Rivera and Assembly Health Committee Chair Amy Paulin introduced legislation they said would help address persistent issues in the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP), which management company Public Partnerships LLC took over April 1.
