Non - Waiver Services
The Case Management Team must document any available benefits and services the consumer is receiving before waiver funds are used to meet the individual's needs. Example: If the consumer is eligible for Medicare and needs medical supplies/equipment, services available through Medicare must be used before use of medical supplies/equipment provided through the waiver.
The OSDP Counselor is responsible for assisting the consumer in applying for and using all available non-waiver services.
The OSDP Counselor must consider all third party resources including services provided by family members and other informal supports to reduce waiver expenditures. Non-waiver services must be considered in the development of the Plan of Care (POC) and must not duplicate IL Waiver or TBI/SCI Waiver Services.
