Senator Rolison & Senate Colleagues Call for Federal Investigation into CDPAP Transition

New York State Senate Republican Leader Rob Ortt, along with members of the Senate Republican Minority Conference, today penned a letter to Robert Kennedy, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, requesting the department open an investigation into the transition of New York’s Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) to a new statewide fiscal intermediary. 

“This deeply flawed transition threatens the care of over 250,000 seniors and disabled New Yorkers who rely on CDPAP to remain in their homes. With reports of delays, confusion, and a lack of transparency, the risks are simply too great to ignore. I join my colleagues in calling for an immediate investigation to ensure accountability and protect those who depend on this vital program,” said Senator Rob Rolison, SD 39th.
