DOH Answers Questions on CDPAP Fiscal Intermediary RFP

(Aug. 13, 2024) The Department of Health posted responses last week to questions regarding its Request for Proposals (RFP) for a single statewide fiscal intermediary (FI) for the Consumer Direct Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP).  In addition, the Department extended the deadline for proposals until Aug. 21, 2024, but did not extend the start date of the awarded contract, which remains Oct. 1, 2024.  The Department also amended provisions of the RFP related to the FI's transition responsibilities and the State's payment for transition costs. 

The Question and Answer document includes responses to over one thousand questions. Noteworthy items relate to subcontracts with independent living centers and a prohibition on licensed home care services agency (LHCSA) and managed care organization ownership/control of FI subcontractors.
