Are COP Level 3 annual rescreens required?
No, it is not required to do an annual COP level 3 re-screen although it is best practice, particularly in times of fiscal constraint. When you are re-screening a person who is currently receiving COP level 3 funding it is important to document that ongoing funding on the Risk Factors page. Note that the waiver mandate only applies for individuals found eligible for COP using the Long Term Care Functional Screen. People with mental illness and no other significant physical or developmental disability with related functional deficits are ineligible for home and community based waivers.
