<br />Consumer-Directed Services <br />Fiscal Intermediary Agreement <br /> <br />Funding for this program will be provided through our existing Consumer-Directed Services <br />budget. No additional funding is being requested. This collaboration with our Human <br />Resources Department and Finance Department will simply allow us to better serve our clients <br />with our current budget. We will process the personal attendant's timesheet through the Munis <br />system. Not only will this simplify the entire process for everyone involved, it will also allow our <br />staff to monitor each client's personal account on line at any time. We will simply access their <br />data via the existing Munis software system. <br /> <br />I apologize for this lengthy request. I have tried to explain this unique situation as simply as <br />possible. We are extremely appreciative of the support and assistance that we have received <br />from both our Finance Department and Human Resources Department throughout this process. <br />As always, everyone has been very creative in an attempt to find a way to solve the problem that <br />has proven to be very difficult for our staff for a couple of years instead of explaining to us why it <br />will not work within our current system. Once again, we are requesting that the Board of <br />Commissioners do the same and approve the concept and agreement titled Consumer-Directed <br />Services Fiscal Intermediary Agreement and authorize the Cabarrus County Director of Aging to <br />execute the individual agreements. <br /> <br />This program will allow us to better utilize our Consumer-Directed Services budget and provide <br />the true benefits of this unique Pilot Project to the funding agencies. With this support, we will <br />likely see other local government agencies across the United States replicate our program and <br />establish contractual agreements with Consumer-Directed Service Programs in their <br />communities. It is truly rewarding to be part of such an innovative and progressive local <br />government system that allows the departments such as ours to participate in Pilot Projects and to <br />position our agencies in front of our counterparts across the state. <br /> <br />Thank you for your time and consideration. As always, we sincerely appreciate your continued <br />support of all of our services and programs for the older adults of Cabarrus County. <br /> <br />G~~ <br />
