The revenue for covering the overhead for CAP program and broader based DSS programs come from the In-Home Aide Program. Justification additional In-Home Aide positions: With the present number of clients served through CAP and the projected growth in clients served, an additional 25 In-Home Aide positions would be needed to meet the expected growth this year. The new positions would not be filled until necessary to meet a CAP client's need. Once the position is filled, Medicaid will be billed at a rate orS11.92 per hour worked by the aide to cover the cost of the position. The possibility of contracting with other agencies to deliver the in-home aide services in behalf of the agency ~s limited. Changes in the CAP program on the state level allows any. agency licensed as a home care agency to enroll as a CAP provider and deliver these services independently without involving the local department of social services. The success of this program depends on the agency's ability to respond to needs of the clients. If we do not have the ability to deliver aide services when needed by the client, the program will suffer.
