Disability Services Made Easy

Experienced guides through a complicated system

Financial Management Services is the fiscal intermediary that assists you with self-direction support. Our staff has gained the experience and insight required to navigate an ever-changing disability service system here in NJ. No matter the change, Financial Management Services has persevered and continued to provide top-tier services to our program participants. This makes us the perfect partner to support you and yours so you make the most of the disability services in New Jersey.

The Agency with Choice program approach we take allows for delivering home and community-based services, increasing choice and authority over how and from whom an individual receives services. In other words, we are the employer, and you are a co-employer.

This model is an alternative to more traditional provider-managed services. Self-direction provides an opportunity for participants to manage the organization of the support and services they elect to receive, supported by their Support Coordinator through the person-centered planning process.

In sum, we are designed to ensure you get the support you need when you need it. If you have a question, you can give us a call or email us. We recognize that every dollar of your budget is precious, and we don’t want to waste your time or money. You hire your staff, select your services, and make decisions about your care – Financial Management Services just makes it all a whole lot easier.

We assist with the following:

  • Ensure SDEs complete DDD-mandated training within specified timeframes.
  • Process SDE timesheets and collect SDE service documentation.
  • Assist with implementing your Individual Support Agreement.
  • Process vendor invoices and collect vendor receipts.
  • Issue payments to SDEs and vendors.
  • Handle appropriate tax requirements.
  • Filing of labor laws.
  • Ensure SDE timesheets and service documentation, and vendor invoices and receipts, align with the Individualized Service Plan (ISP).
  • Provide benefits (medical, dental, vision, life insurance, Paid-Time-Off, retirement plans) to SDEs working 30+ hours a week – reducing employee turnover and better service
