Broadscope Disability Services provides fiscal agent services as BDS Fiscal to families receiving CLTS Waiver funding. Participants hire their own employees and choose the services their workers provide. When using the fiscal agent method of employing an individual to work with your child, your child becomes the employer. You, as your child’s parent/guardian, then take on all employer responsibilities. BDS Fiscal can assist you with this process.
We manage payroll and employer tax payments to ease the administrative burden for families.
