The Caretaker Supplement ( CTS ) is an additional cash benefit amount paid to parents receiving Supplemental Security Income ( SSI ) who care for their dependent children. Assistance groups for this cash benefit are determined by CARES using the Standard Filing Unit ( SFU ). The Caretaker Supplement is added to the monthly state SSI payment sent to the parent by the Department of Health and Family Services ( DHFS ).
The Caretaker Supplement program is not a Medicaid program.
