Preamble: These regulations are promulgated pursuant to 34-B M.R.S.A. §5438, relating to a program of Consumer-Directed Personal Assistance Services. It is the purpose of the Consumer-Directed Personal Assistance Services program to provide services, subject to the availability of funds, for adult Maine residents with severe disabilities that allow them to remain in their homes and communities and out of institutional settings. The Department of Health and Human Services will regularly assess the resources available to administer the program and establish Maximum Authorized Service amounts as needed to operate within available funding. This program will strive to promote consumer choice, consumer direction, flexibility, as well as consumer responsibility in the provision of these services.
