Section 210-RICR-50-00-4.8 - Application Completeness and Eligibility Determination TimelinesA. Complete Application. Under State law, an LTSS application is considered complete when the application form and "attachments and supplemental information as necessary" provide the agency with sufficient information to determine eligibility.B. Scope of Information Required. The information required for an application to be considered complete is not fixed. An applicant's unique circumstances dictate which factors must be considered when determining eligibility and, as such, when there is sufficient information to determine eligibility. By signing the application, the applicant self-attests to the truth of the information he or she provides on any required forms submitted to the agency. To the full extent feasible, this information is verified through electronic data sources. However, when no electronic sources are available, the applicant must provide various types of documentation as proof to support self-attestations. C. The full range of information that may be required for an application to be complete varies depending on the applicant's situation and the type of verification/proof required. A list of eligibility factors and types of acceptable documentation are located on the EOHHS website at: http://www.eohhs.ri.gov/ProvidersPartners/FormsApplications.aspx and is also available on paper by contacting the DHS-LTSS coverage line at (401) 415- 8455.210 R.I.
