DHS is in the process of replacing personal care assistance (PCA) and the Consumer Support Grant (CSG) with Community First Services and Supports (CFSS). For more information about this transition, refer to CFSS Manual – Transition from PCA and CSG to CFSS.

DHS must update the Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) to allow counties/tribal nations to enter a CFSS service agreement (SA). Some fields have minor changes. For more information, refer to DSD MMIS Reference Guide – MMIS transition from PCA and CSG to CFSS.

During the transition from CSG to CFSS, the county/tribal nation follows the instructions below to enter a new SA in MMIS:
