Section 660-2-4-.18 - Care In Cerebral Palsy Treatment Centers

(1) Eligible recipients receiving care in Cerebral Palsy Treatment Centers who were eligible for optional supplementation as of June 1, 1981 may continue to receive a monthly payment to supplement their other income to help pay for the cost of their care and certain basic needs. "Eligible for" includes persons actually receiving APTD in the Center in June 1981, as well as persons who before June 1981 were: 18 years of age or older and in a Cerebral Palsy Treatment Center and had applied for APTD before June 1981 and were later determined eligible. Eligibility continues only for as long as he remains in the Center and receives SSI, or would receive SSI except for income. (An interruption for any length of time in the stay in the Center has no effect on the person's eligibility upon his return to the Center.)

(2) The amount of the supplement for persons in Cerebral Palsy Treatment Centers who receive SSI is $196 per month. No separate statement of income/resources nor budget is necessary. Persons who do not receive SSI due to income are eligible for a supplement in the amount of the difference between $196 and the amount of income in excess of the SSI federal benefit rate.
