Official Website

of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    The .gov means its official.

    Local, state, and federal government websites often end in .gov. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania government websites and email systems use "pennsylvania.gov" or "pa.gov" at the end of the address. Before sharing sensitive or personal information, make sure you're on an official state website.

    Home and Community-Based Services Subsystem (HCBSS)

    HCBSS is a cloud-based system that will replace the current Home and Community Services Information System (HCSIS).

    The HCBSS will be used by DHS staff, counties, Administrative Entities, Supports/Service Coordination Organizations, providers, business partners, individuals/participants, and their families. This new subsystem will allow all stakeholders to make sure individuals/participants in DHS Waivers and Programs have their needs and goals met and that high quality services that promote health, safety, and wellness are provided throughout their lives.

    The HCBSS will support the following program offices:

    • Office of Child Development and Early Learning (OCDEL)
    • Bureau of Early Intervention Services and Family Supports (BEISFS)
    • Office of Developmental Programs (ODP)
    • Intellectual Disability/Autism (ID/A) Waiver Services
