What is a Fiscal Employer Agent (FEA)
The FEA is like a “Payroll Service.”
• Specifically, an FEA takes care of:– Payroll processing (issuing payroll checks, vendor
payments, etc.) – Taxes (Employee & Employer) – Updating budget balances– Billing Medicaid– Generating required reports to Participants and
Medicaid
Consumer Direct’s Role
• Consumer Direct helps set you up as a non-income generating healthcare business
• You submit timesheets and/or vendor requests to Consumer Direct
• Consumer Direct issues payroll or vendor checks
• Consumer Direct fronts the money and then bills Medicaid for reimbursement
Pre-enrollment Process
• The Family/Participant hires a Support Broker.
• The Support Broker assists in developing a Support and Spending Plan (SSP).
• The Support Broker forwards the SSP to the Medicaid Care Manager for review and approval.
• Medicaid sends the approved SSP to Consumer Direct for processing.
FEA Enrollment Packet• We are going to go form-by-form through the
Enrollment Packet.
• The IRS requires the Enrollment Packet forms to be pre-populated not handwritten.
• The participant’s legal name must be used. – Specifically, their name as it appears on their Social Security card.
• We need completed “packets” in order to process the documents. – Processing will be delayed if the packets are not signed and/or
complete.
