On behalf of the Texas Department of Aging and Disabilities, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has adopted an amendment to implement an age requirement for Community Care for Aged and Disabled (CCAD) primary home care services in response to the settlement agreement in Alberto N., et al, vs. Albert Hawkins and James Hine. (Also see CCAD Age Requirement, ICM Program)
Persons 21 and younger will be offered personal care services (unskilled attendant care). For more information, see the relevant section to the August 24 Texas Register.
