• Information for Individuals and Families
  In the Medicaid-based, fee-for-service system, all individuals who are eligible for and wish to access DDD services must either select or be assigned to a Support Coordination Agency (SCA). The Support Coordination Agency assigns a Support Coordinator to work with the indiviudal and his/her family to ensure completion of the Person-Centered Planning Tool (PCPT) and to develop the Individualized Service Plan (ISP).

  To assist individuals and families in understanding the process for selecting an SCA, The Boggs Center has developed two helpful guides:

  • Selecting A Support Coordination Agency: A Guide for People With Disabilities 
  • Selecting A Support Coordination Agency: A Guide for Families

  To select and/or change an individual's Support Coordination Agency, a Support Coordination Agency Selection Form must be submitted to DDD.

  The Support Coordination Agencies List is an up-to-date list of all Medicaid/DDD approved Support Coordination Agencies.
