APA WF 21-10 Transitioning Developmental Disabilities Services Division (DDSD) Members back into the Money Follows the Person (MFP) Program

The proposed revisions will add language that allows the DDSD to transition members, who have been a resident in a public or private Medicaid Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICF/IID), or qualified long term care facility, into a community setting through the Living Choice MFP program. The proposed revisions also change the required amount of consecutive time an individual must be in the long-term care institution prior to being eligible for transition into the community setting from “at least ninety (90) consecutive days” to sixty (60) consecutive days. Additionally, proposed revision will be removing language that pertained to a pilot program involving the PRTF population, which was not successful and will no longer be implemented. Finally, revisions will remove outdated language to reflect current business practices.
