Ive been told that some of the $17,000 is used for mandatory support coordination. Can I forgo these services and instead use these funds to purchase additional community-based services?
No, support coordination is a Children’s Choice Waiver service. In fact, DHH/Office for Citizens with Developmental Disabilities (OCDD) has raised the cap to $17,000 in order to address this concern. The support coordination agency is responsible for development of the comprehensive plan of care and assuring the services your child needs are delivered. However, DHH/OCDD will continue to seek ways to make the support coordination requirement more flexible.
