What is CAP/DA?
A Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) program authorized under section1915(c) of the Social Security Act and complies with 42 CFR § 440.180, Home and Community-Based Waiver Services. This waiver program provides a cost-effective alternative to institutionalization for a Medicaid beneficiary who is medically fragile and at risk for institutionalization if home- and community-bases services approved in the CAP/DA waiver were not available.

This waiver supplements, rather than replaces, the formal and informal services and supports already available to an approved Medicaid beneficiary.
