What Funding Does Johnny Have?

Medicaid Funding Sources:
Ø Mental Retardation Waiver Program (MRWP waiver)
Ø Community Habilitation and Support Services Waiver Program (CHSS waiver)
State Funded Source:
Ø Grant in Aid (GIA)
Services available under the MRWP waiver program:
Ø Residential (RTS)
Ø Personal Support (PS)
Ø Day Habilitation (DH)
Ø Day Supports (DS)
Ø Supported Employment (SE)
Ø Natural Support Enhancement Services (NSE)
Ø Special Medical Supplies (SMS)
Ø Special Medical Equipment (SME)
These services are offered individually as needed and availability of funds. So an individual may only have PS, or only have DS or may have RTS and SE. It will depend on the needs of the individual. The PA will indicate which services under the MRWP the person has.
Services available under the CHSS waiver program:
This is a bundled waiver that is not a "menu" of services so all Medicaid reimbursed service needs identified on the ISP must be provided by the direct support agency. These service needs may include the following:
Ø Residential
Ø Personal Support
Ø Day Habilitation
Ø Day Supports
Ø Supported Employment
Ø Special Medical Supplies
Ø Special Medical Equipment
Services Available under Grant in Aid Funding:
Ø Family Support (FS)
Ø Autism Family Support (AFS)
Ø DD Family Support (DDFS)
These are all basically the same. The primary difference is the eligibility criteria. AFS requires the individual to a have diagnosis within the Autism spectrum. FS and DDFS requires that the individual have an MR/DD diagnosis. These services may include respite, supplies, equipment, personal support, dental services, medical care, specialized clothing, recreational/leisure activities, transportation and other services as defined by individual need.
Ø Comprehensive Day Services
Services Location of Service Delivery
Employment Services Facility or Community Based
Individual
Group (enclave, mobile crew)
Non-Employment Services Facility, Community and some
cases in the home if not RTS or
PS setting
Indirect Intervention Services Community Based
Direct non-employment services Facility or Community Based
Ø Contract Funded Residential Supports Can be provided in a home
owned or rented by the support
agency, for people living in a
home or apartment that they own
or rent themselves.
Different agencies will call these services by different
names based on their internal language, however the service names listed above
must be used on the Plan of Care page in the ISP.
Exclusions, Myths and Facts
Ø Individuals CANNOT be on the MRWP and CHSS waiver at the same time.
Ø People cannot receive MRWP services and receive GIA services at the same time if they are for the same thing.
Ø If there is not DMA-6 then the consumer is NOT on a waiver and the funding source would be GIA.
ISP Considerations
When recording the DD System Provided Services in Section II of the ISP you will ONLY record the applicable bulleted services listed in this document.
If it is not in this document it is not a DD System Provided service.
