Authorization for Medicaid Services Special Edition
The Personal Care Authorization Form is now included in the Authorization for Medicaid Services. The forms were combined to eliminate the need for an additional form and signature. If the need for assistance with daily living skills, redirection and behavior, or health-related (not academic) monitoring or cueing by a paraprofessional aide box is marked YES, you will need to fill out the Personal Care Services section of the Authorization for Medicaid Services form.
List ALL of the personal care services the student may need and share that information with their personal care aide.
You may see both versions of the Personal Care Authorization Form as the updated Authorization for Medicaid Services form continues to be rolled out and implemented.
