THE CHILDREN'S LONG TERM SUPPORT (CLTS) MEDICAID WAIVER PROGRAM PROVIDES CASE MANAGEMENT AND FUNDING TO CHILDREN WITH LONG TERM PHYSICAL, DEVELOPMENTAL AND MENTAL HEALTH DISABILITIES. THE CHILD MUST MEET THE STATE SCREENING PROCESS TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS PROGRAM. THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS REGARDING THE PROVISION OF SUPPORT AND SERVICE COORDINATION ARE MONTHLY COLLATERAL CONTACT AND FACE-TO-FACE PARTICIPANT CONTACT EVERY 6 MONTHS WITH AT LEAST ONE OF THE FACE-TO-FACE CONTACTS BEING COMPLETED AT THE PARTICIPANT'S PLACE OF RESIDENCE. MORE FREQUENT CONTACT MAY BE REQUIRED IN RESPONSE TO INDIVIDUAL NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN ASSESSMENTS OR PRIOR CRITICAL INCIDENTS TO ASSURE HEALTH AND SAFETY.

THE CHILDREN'S LONG TERM SUPPORT (CLTS) MEDICAID WAIVER PROGRAM INCLUDES A SPECIFIC WAIVER FOR AUTISM TREATMENT SERVICES. THE IN-HOME AUTISM TREATMENT SERVICE WAS MOVED FROM A MEDICAID WAIVER SERVICE TO A MEDICAID CARD SERVICE IN 2017. THE CHILDREN ON THAT SPECIFIC AUTISM WAIVER WERE ALLOWED TO TRANSITION INTO THE GENERAL WAIVER AND RECEIVE THOSE DEFINED SERVICES, BUT THE ABA IN HOME THERAPY WOULD NOW BE PAID FOR THROUGH THE MEDICAID CARD AND MONITORED BY MEDICAID. THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN LISTED UNDER THE AUTISM WAIVER WILL GRADUALLY REDUCE TO ZERO AS THEY AGE OUT, MOVE OUT OF STATE OR ARE FOUND NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR ANY WAIVER SERVICE. THIS WILL COMPLETE THE ELIMINATION OF THE AUTISM WAIVER AND LEAVE ONLY ONE CLTS WAIVER FOR ALL DISABILITIES. DDIS PROVIDED 2,404.25 UNITS OF SERVICE TO 63 CLIENTS DURING THE YEAR.
