Register to become a TrueCare FMS service provider. Tell us about your business and how you’d like to be paid. Fields marked * are required.
For year-end 1099 reporting — this should match your W-9.
Optional — a business page or profile helps us confirm you’re an established provider. Leave blank if you’d rather not.
If you’re registering to serve a specific participant, name them here so we can link you up faster. Registering on your own? Leave this blank — our team will connect you to participants during review.
Where we send mail. If this is a PO box or private mailbox, tell us the physical operating address below.
The city you work out of / are based in. For in-home services, that’s usually your own city.
Helps when the work is in an unincorporated area, where the county issues the license.
What you provide, and how. Your answers here decide which documents California DDS requires from you — we’ll show you exactly what to attach, and nothing you don’t need.
DDS asks for different qualifications depending on which you are. An individual provides the service personally; an agency’s employees provide it.
Relatives and legal guardians may be paid for most Self-Determination services — but not for every one of them.
An Independent Facilitator helps a participant build and manage their Self-Determination plan and budget — a different role from a direct service provider. If yes, we’ll set you up with an Independent Facilitator portal.
Search or scroll, and pick every service you’ll bill for. If you’re not sure of the code, the participant’s spending plan lists it — or leave this blank and we’ll confirm it with you.
Personal care means hands-on help with daily living — bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transferring, or feeding. This is different from community integration, supported-living coordination, or transportation. Answer Yes only if you personally provide hands-on personal care. Under the Self-Determination Program, anyone providing personal care needs a DDS background check (Live Scan) before they can be paid — regardless of how they’re paid.
These three questions are California’s ABC test (Labor Code § 2775), the legal standard for who counts as an independent contractor. Because TrueCare pays you as an independent business through Bill Pay — you invoice us, and we don’t run payroll or withhold taxes — the law requires us to confirm you qualify as a contractor rather than an employee before we can pay you this way. Answer honestly: if your answers look more like an employee, it won’t necessarily stop you — our team will review your classification with you before you’re set up.
Only what applies to you, based on your answers. PDF, Word, or a clear photo — up to 15 MB each.
For year-end 1099 reporting — should match the tax classification you gave us. Don’t have one? Download the blank IRS form below, fill it in, and upload it here.
