Bill overview
The Self-Directed Care Access Act requires the New Jersey Department of Human Services (DHS) to create a single, online application system and process for Medicaid self-directed care programs. This will streamline the application process for individuals seeking to self-direct their home and community-based services through Medicaid waivers. The act also aims to standardize application materials and documentation across different waiver programs, making it easier for participants to hire self-directed employees.
