DADS has issued Information Letter 14-25 –
The purpose of this Information Letter (IL) is to provide information and recommendations for Community Living Assistance and Support Services (CLASS) Case Management Agencies (CMAs) and Direct Services Agencies (DSAs) regarding maintaining 1) continuously current level of care (LOC) authorizations through approved Intellectual Disability/Related Conditions (ID/RC) forms, 2) continuously current service authorizations through approved Individual Plans of Care (IPCs), and 3) continuously current financial eligibility for all individuals enrolled in the CLASS program.
DADS is developing additional resources to provide information about the importance of avoiding lapses in LOC and IPC authorizations and loss of financial eligibility for the waiver programs. These resources may include alerts, webinars, trainings, an electronic frequently asked questions document, and other stakeholder forums.
Please send questions related to this IL to the CLASS mailbox at class@dads.state.tx.us.
