The ability to direct and manage their own services and supports is important to many individuals who need the home- and community-based services (HCBS) provided through state Medicaid programs. These self-directed models may also be known as "consumer direction" and "participant direction" when referring to specific states' programs. In these models, individuals direct many or all of their own HCBS, including selecting and managing direct service workers and/or managing a budget (known in some states as a service cost maximum) for needed services.
