Take Control of Your Care with CDS.

What is CDS?
The Consumer Directed Services (CDS) program is a Missouri Medicaid program that puts you in charge of your care.
It empowers individuals with disabilities to hire, train, and supervise their personal care attendants (PCAs). This means you get to choose who provides your care – often a trusted family member or friend.
CDS offers greater flexibility, more personalized attention, and financial assistance through Medicaid. With CDS, you’re not just receiving care; you’re directing it.
