Attached is a memo from DODD which attempts to clarify the communication sent out earlier this week re: waiver eligibility and short term stays in institutional settings. Please note that after 90 days, the individual will be dis-enrolled. However, there is a process by which the waiver can be held and re-slotted to the person as long as the waiver span does not cross program years.

 

This was sent to county boards and the OACBDD is working with counties to understand the particulars.

 

Please let us know if you have any difficulty in implementing this process.
