APA WF 22-23B OKDHS ADvantage Waiver Revisions

The proposed revisions will align policy with the recently approved 1915(c) ADvantage waiver amendment, which added Assistive Technology and Remote Support services. Assistive Technology services include devices, controls and appliances specified in the member's person-centered service plan which enables them to increase their abilities to perform activities of daily living or to perceive, control or communicate with the environment in which they live. Remote Supports services involves monitoring of a waiver member by remote staff using audio or video equipment, allowing for live, two-way communication with them in their residence. Remote Supports allow for a member to choose the method of service delivery which best suits their needs. These two new services will be added to the "Services provided through the ADvantage waiver" list. Final revisions will correct formatting and grammatical errors.
