Our services

At Sunflower Home Care, we are committed to empowering individuals through the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP), an initiative of the New York State Medicaid program. This innovative program allows you to recruit, hire, and direct your own home care workers, including family and friends, who will receive payment for their services. Our expertise ensures a smooth application process for those who meet the essential criteria: having Medicaid, requiring home care, and being self-directing or having a designated representative. This program is available for children, elders, seniors, and differently-abled individuals.

Navigating the CDPAP and MLTC Application Process

The journey through CDPAP and Managed Long Term Care (MLTC) applications involves several steps, including assessments, required consumer forms, and the selection of your preferred caregiver. Whether you choose a loved one or a professional nurse, we ensure your caregiver is paid by the government, with compensation ranging from $18 to $23 per hour and flexible working hours.

Personalized Support for Your Needs

Our dedicated specialists at Sunflower Home Care act as your personal guides, simplifying the entire application process. We address your concerns, handle the details, and lead you through each step seamlessly. From navigating different MLTC plan options to ensuring smooth enrollment, we make the complexities of Medicaid Managed Long Term Care easy to manage, providing personalized services tailored to your needs.

Flexible Care Hours and Support

Worried about the maximum hours for CDPAP? Although there is no official limit on the number of care hours a consumer can receive, approval is based on the Medicaid Managed Care plan. Consumers can receive up to 24 hours of care, seven days a week. While there is no formal cap for caregivers, including family and friends, most CDPAP fiscal intermediaries aim to limit weekly hours to around 40 to manage overtime costs effectively.

Prioritizing Your Independence and Well-Being

At Sunflower Home Care, we prioritize your independence and well-being. Our commitment is to ensure you receive the personalized care you deserve, helping you maintain your lifestyle in the comfort of your own home.
