1915(c) HCBS In-Home Supports Waiver for Adults

The Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OHS) is seeking an amendment to the In-Home Supports Waiver for Adults (IHSW-A). The IHSW-A serves individuals with intellectual disabilities age 18 and over. The specific changes include increasing the number served in waiver years 1 through 5 from 2450 each year to 3091 in waiver year 1; 4266 in waiver year 2; 4507 in waiver year 3; 4650 in waiver year 4; and 4800 in waiver year 5. The incident management process is updated to detail requirements for electronic reporting requirements for 4 tiers of incidents. Other changes include allowing providers to obtain an FBI national background check instead of the OSBI report, updating language to reflect the new DDS software, and adding the agency model for PT, OT, speech and nutrition services.
