The Hochul administration announced Monday a “grace period” for consumers caught in the middle of its turbulent overhaul of the state’s $9 billion home care system – but continued to deflect blame for the chaos. The Department of Health said participants in the consumer directed personal assistance program, or CDPAP, can be reimbursed once their paperwork is processed by Public Partnerships LLC, the company handpicked by Gov. Kathy Hochul’s team to consolidate payroll services.
